For me personally its Coke > Pepsi > Black - but with the proviso that it's got to be Jubilee bracelet. I love that classic look and would never give up mine for all the tea in China.

I think the Coke is the best all round bezel. I like the Pepsi but I soon tire of its brightness. The black is smart and good for business but after a while starts to look like a Sub. Coke is the best compromise. But, in true GMT style, I often switch the bezels. The only constant is my Jubilee bracelet.

Me too.

I like how the red bezel matches the red hand, but the introduction of another colour (blue) is too much for me.

However I do appreciate the history behind the Pepsi and would never turn one down.

I sold the black 16710 and bought the Pepsi 16750. I love them the same - but for very different reasons...

I prefer coke and occasionally the black. But I bought a used Pepsi insert a few weeks ago just to try it and the blue was so dark, that I might as well use the coke...just a little cleaner and better color coordination with the dial. So I returned the Pepsi.
