GMTIIC first, then I would make sure to get the Pepsi later.

GMT IIC.. Many advantages including the ceramic bezel (albeit no color option) and clasp to mention a few.

Bought my GMT II C today! I get it tomorrow!!!
![]() ![]() I personally never liked the pepsi or coke bezels. I like black and I dont care about changing inserts, so the C was for me. |

Pepsi for me...it's all about the looks and nothing else.
I do not like the fat lugs ( really not elegant and brutish looking IMO) on the GMTIIC. I also do not particularly like the busyness of the ceramic bezel. The multi-color bezel of the old GMTs "break up" the busyness. |

If you get the Pepsi, you can always have a Coke, a rootbeer, or a black soda. Very versatile

I love the Pepsi and it will be the next watch I buy, perhaps as early as this Saturday. But, with that said, a GMT C vs a Pepsi at the same price, I'd probably go with the GMT C. Either the Ceramic is being sold too low or the Pepsi is too expensive.

I think the C is worth the retail price but a Pepsi isn't worth $8k. GMTIIC for me though I like the Pepsi better.

This is one of the rare times where a coin flip would be appropriate.
