More opinions please!!!

Hello;

Wanted the Pepsi ,mostly for the price, but I talked with an AD here in Canada today and he will sell me a GMT II C BNIB M serial, papers, warranty everything that comes with a new Rolex. $6000.00 tax and delivery in.

And yes he is a Rolex dealer.



Opinions please


Brett

Buy the one you like best. By best you need to decide if that is only price or other criteria. Only you can make up your own mind. Good luck and enjoy either one.

I would still go for the Pepsi. You can always get the GMT IIc later on.

Which would you buy if they cost the same? Personally, I prefer the Pepsi & it has nothing to do with cost. The good thing is....there is no wrong choice here, they're both winners.

Getting something that you don't want at a discount doesn't seem like the right decision. I would get the one you want.

I agree that pricing should not be the over riding issue when picking. Both are supurb pieces. I'm a fan of the Maxi-dial, but that's just me. Either will give you a lifetime of service and there is the versatility factor of the 16710.

I drink Coke, but like to wear the Pepsi. The bright blue and red on the Pepsi is just stunning.

The one that you like the most!Try them both and then decide,both are fantastic watches and choice between them should be just a matter of personal taste.
