opinions needed
Hi all - what a great thread! Really enjoying the photos. Thanks to all! Definitely going to pick up a pepsi 1675 soon. I'm writing to get people's opinions:

Option 1 has a really nicely-faded pepsi bezel. It's exactly what I'm looking for. The drawback is that is has a service dial: where it would normally say "Swiss - T < 25" at the 6pm mark, it just says "Swiss." The hands have been replaced, with black, not light (matt?) hands around the glow in the dark parts. Photo below - are these the "wrong" hands?

Option 2 has the original dial (says "Swiss - T < 25"), but the bezel has been replaced - freshly red and blue.

I would really appreciate your opinions as to which way go. Cool bezel with service dial or cool dial with new bezel. Does the pepsi below have the "wrong" hands? Anything wrong with the dial besides just being a sercvice dial? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the quick reply! Any insight as to why you think these components are fake would be greatly appreciated.

How long have you owned it...?
5 years for a 1675 and about one month today for 16700

How much time does it get in your rotation?
I've been wearing the 16700 daily since purchase a month ago.

Why you own a Pepsi, not a coke or black bezel insert...?
Blue & red is a better combination.

I'm a girl.. and yes, the watch is the same size as my wrist. I absolutely love it.

Back in the pepsi world ...!
I started this thread in 2013, I have bought the foolishly sold a few Pepsi Gmt watches. I now have a very nice faded pepsi bezel 1980's Gmt master watch that will not be sold, only passed down.

I want to thank everyone for their inspiring photos- keep them coming...!

Have owned mine for about 8 months. At this point it's on my wrist 23 hours/day. The only time it's not on is during my morning run. My other watches haven't been receiving any wrist time.

Was a bit of a late conversion to the Pepsi, being a Sub/SD man - now have a 1675 and 16750 - hard to go past them!
