My new buy a Pepsi GMT 11

A really big thanks to all those of you who guided me on this purchase.

Picked it up today (350 mile round trip ). Got it from Rolex AD in Norwich UK, Dipple & Son, dealt with Chris - top guy who gave a very fair discount!

The AD had the watch serviced at RSC April 2008

*Sob....*Wail....*wahhhhaaaahhhaaaahhh!!!!!

Guys this was the same watch I spoke about in a thread last week..."Visit to my AD".

When Martin posted the thread I figured it may be the model and I'm so glad it went to a buddy on the forum.

Gorgeous watch in great condition.

Chris at Dipples is a top guy and the place is a real old fashioned Jeweller/watch dealer.

Congrats all round

Nice watch! It looks like it was well worth the trip! That Pepsi bezel is the best in my opinion! :)
