Tudor GMT - PEPSI or COKE

One of the things I noticed as soon as the Tudor GMT came out was the chameleon like bezel. I really like that the Blue turns Black at times. Its like wearing two watches at once. I haven't come across any threads that mention this. It a fantastic characteristic of this piece. If i didn't already have a Coke, I'd seriously consider this piece. I love the Coke, but about 30% of me that wants to buy the Pepsi bezel. This watch would definitely scratch that itch.

I’m likely buying both the Pepsi Rolex and Tudor from my AD this summer. I think the Tudor is the better design... guess I’ll have the start of a little GMT collection going with my Batman and both Pepsi’s lol. The Tudor Pepsi will make a great everyday beater. Kinda like I wear my Speedy Pro instead of my Daytona when I know the watch may get a little more wear than usual.

I only see blue on both watches, except maybe between the 4 and 6 on the watch on the right's bezel.

I actually posted a question on TRF about this picture when it first came out, right around when Basel kicked off. I thought they were releasing a pepsi and a coke!

Things I love about the GMT Tudor Pepsi:

1) Bezel insert looks both blue and black
2) Matte bezel is cool
3) looks like a 6542, first edition rolex GMT with Bakelite
4) Strap brings out the red in the bezel

They killed it, awesome design.
