People,

Despite the fact that I'm a proud owner of a DJ SS, a SS Daytona and a LV I just got in love with the GMT II Pepsi and even asked DavidSW to find me one BNIB.

I know that a M-Series BNIB Pepsi GMT II is not easy to find, so question is: if he manage to find a Coke do you think I should get it? Or should I wait for a Pepsi?

Cheers
Walter

Get a Pepsi insert if so and have both!

mjm800 · 17 August 2010, 12:42 PM

I like the the Pepsi better than the Coke. I would wait.

X2, Good luck

Wait it out if your looking for BNIB.

You can always find a coke, and solid black to switch out, but the papers will be correct.

Have it all.

If we truly love ourselves, we would all be wearing the Coke. Get the Coke and the Pepsi insert.

nauticajoe · 17 August 2010, 01:23 PM

Wait it out for a Pepsi.

Speed · 17 August 2010, 01:25 PM

IMO,

Get a BNIB Coke, Pepsi or Black. These are getting harder to find...then, as Dan says, have it all!!!

therolexguy · 17 August 2010, 01:34 PM

A wrist shot from SPEED?

Mr. Greene · 17 August 2010, 01:38 PM

hold out for what you want, I would get the coke even though I like the pepsi a little better. the 2 tone just makes it unique whichever color combo

Very naaaace...How much? (Said like Borat)

sakuraba · 17 August 2010, 02:11 PM

Why keep yourself from getting a GMT just because it's the wrong 'flavor'? Get a spare Pepsi and swap the insert. If originality matters that much, then keep the coke insert for when you flip it.

You just made me thirsty!

roger0770 · 17 August 2010, 03:52 PM

like many already said, why wait? you can always swap out the insert.

George Ab · 17 August 2010, 03:55 PM

Only GMT II's sold in the US have the A, B, or N distinction behind the 16710 Model Number. Everywhere else, they only show the 16710 model number. If it is non-US dealer watch, buy what he has and get the Pepsi later.... with patience and $150 you should be able to find a mint condition Pepsi bezel. If it has US chrono/warranty certificate I would hold out for the 16710B (Pepsi).

Just had a Coke delivered today, that I'm wearing. Sold a pepsi a week or so ago and I definitely prefer the Pepsi, followed by the Coke and black bezel a distant third.

It might not be wise to wait it out if a reasonable good deal comes up on the "coke". BNIB 16710's are fewer by the day. You can always swap the inlay.
