Pepsi

BNA/LION · 2 September 2015, 12:56 PM

If both is not an option I guess I would go black if you don't have a black sub but pepsi is awesome too!

Runnin' Rebel · 2 September 2015, 01:07 PM

Love the Black. Coke is a close 2nd

ducatiti · 5 September 2015, 02:05 PM

89 Pepsi; 20 Black

Wow! May just keep wearing my GMT as a pepsi longer :)

TimeOnHand · 6 September 2015, 10:34 AM

This month for me... all black!

Pepsi

ducatiti · 8 September 2015, 06:35 AM

Landslide!

Boopie · 8 September 2015, 09:10 AM

Pepsi. It is iconic and unique to the GMT.

luvsub · 8 September 2015, 01:16 PM

pepsi

ducatiti · 11 September 2015, 02:53 PM

Called SF Rolex Center and was advised that a coke insert would be $100 installed and they will keep my old insert. Is this the current price nowadays?

I got mine for $100CAD ~ $75USD. Take the bezel insert off first yourself or have it removed by an independent watchmaker.
Then, take it to RSC. They can't keep what's not there.
That way, I got to keep my old coke when I purchased a new pepsi.

ducatiti · 16 November 2015, 11:30 AM

I'm back with the black insert now. I think I will stick with this for a while now.

Joearch · 16 November 2015, 12:16 PM

I voted black because I think the Pepsi clashes. I like the coke bezel best.

rdragon · 16 November 2015, 12:34 PM

OP - how often do you swap inserts?

dddrees · 16 November 2015, 12:46 PM

Take a guess. LOL

BUT would there be a possibility they would deny service as it's missing a part??!

I guess one could lie and say it got 'lost'

sea-dweller · 16 November 2015, 02:07 PM

Pepsi...

Black for understated class and Pepsi for sport. I put the Pepsi on for the summer months and black rest of the year. I slip the Coke in in the fall sometimes. Slip the Coke in...context, context.

disco stu · 16 November 2015, 03:09 PM

Pepsi is nice.....black is beautiful. More versatile and discreet as others have said.

When I had my 16710 I wore it mainly on black but frequently swapped to experiment. The assembly became loose over the years so at the next service I asked them to change the actual bezel. Problem fixed!

I vote black!

greenfan · 16 November 2015, 09:01 PM

I wear mine all black, although I bought it Coke !

Racerdj · 16 November 2015, 09:19 PM

It's great to have both but if I owned your watch, the pepsi insert would be worn most of the time.

brettpaul · 16 November 2015, 09:21 PM

Have to go with the heritage of the watch and say Pepsi! Great looking piece mate!!

xzcfhxg · 16 November 2015, 09:22 PM

The black is more versatile...If we were talking ceramic, i'd say pepsi...but for all around use, i'd go black...

airchitect · 16 November 2015, 09:49 PM

I must say I'm shocked how many people are saying black. One always assumes its Pepsi/Coke or nothin.... Guess this guy was wrong.

MCO1 · 16 November 2015, 11:06 PM

I have to admit I am all Pepsi with a little Coke from time to time. To me It looks an awful lot like a Sub with the black one which is the other I wear and I gotta have some diversity.
