Needing some expert advice regarding my possible future Pepsi
I have been looking for a Pepsi GMT for some time, and I have looked a lot online, but am always skiddish about buying a watch I have not seen in person and tried on. My local AD called me today, says has purchased a 2001 GMT "Coke Bezel" today from a private seller and wanted me to check it out. He says it is in immaculate condition, and though he has seen the movement and it appears to be in excellent running shape, it has not ever been serviced. He has offered me a cash price of 5K straight up, no tax, out the door, with a full service included and 2 year warranty....all I would need to do would be to come up with a pepsi bezel to have the watch Ive been wanting, which he said he will change out for me no cost as well....my questions are:
1. Does this sound like a good deal for this watch based on year assuming I find it to be on the shape he says it is (ive bought 3 other rolexes from him and trust him very much) 2. Is there any difference in watches initially shipped with the "Coke" vs "pepsi" bezel other than the bezel itself...ie could you tell this was an original "coke" with a pepsi bezel inserted later by looking at the watch? 3. Can ADs order pepsi bezels from Rolex or not since they are discontinued? What is a fair price for a NOS bezel? Any other comments welcome....thanks in advance....if I get pics Ill post them... |
