Great looking GMT! The Pepsi bezel is definitely the classic version of the GMT.

Beautiful. Is that an M series? I have an M series Pepsi, but with the stick (ll) dial. Mine did pass the wiggle test. I love the Pepsis and Cokes. Best of luck to you.

Great looking GMT you have there.

I must admit, owning a new IIc version myself, that there really is something special about the Blue/Red bezel on the model that you have and I can see why they are so popular and sought after.

The ceramic all-black bezel does look good on mine, but you can't beat a splash of colour on the Pepsi, which goes really well with the SS.

Nice one and thanks for sharing with us.
