Rolex GMT Master II 16760 "PEPSI": myth or fact?

Dera All,


I'm new to Rolex world. Just acquired a 16700 Pepsi not long ago as my first Rolex.

Now I have my interest on this 16760 especially for its short period of production time and I saw on ebay that someone offer a 16760 "Pepsi" for bidding.

I've tried to search on this forum but no luck

As far as I know 16760 were only made with Coke insert, but I want to ask you guys who are more expert than me on Rolex: were there any 16760s made with the Coke insert?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Jimmy

Hi Jimmy,

The 16760 was offered with a red / black bezel insert only.
It is no problem to swap or change the original red / black coke bezel insert
with a red / blue oder black insert.

If you want a correct 16760 you have to find the correct bezel insert or
enjoy the watch with the current bezel insert

Hi MaG,

Thanks a lot for the confirmation, I was thinking the same from what I have read. The seller of this 16760 "Pepsi" seems legit (the are in the chrono24 as well).

Cheers,
Jimmy
