im deciding between one of these and a dj for my first rolex purchase. lets see some pics of the pepsi! or is it coke?

what is the market price for one of these bad boys now? i did all my rolex research on the DJ and ended up buying something else as a dress watch

so now i am starting to consider a sport model

Here's my Pepsi 1675 a couple weeks ago...

sushisummo · 12 December 2009, 10:11 AM

Pepsi would be a great choice.

Happy hunting.

Nicko · 12 December 2009, 10:12 AM

I might even think about trading my Sub for one, well, maybe not.

therolexguy · 12 December 2009, 12:12 PM

Good luck with your hunt.

unclesallie · 12 December 2009, 12:52 PM

between a dj and vintage sports model? to state the proposition is to reach the conclusion: GMT all the way.

Reloj · 12 December 2009, 01:00 PM

I'm a Pepsi GMT guy, it's kind of bright when dressing up. The black/red Coke bezel is slightly more under the radar, but not so much like the basic black. Whichever, you'll love it.

GMT's are very nice watches. You won't look back if you find a keeper. Nice 1990's vintage GMT's can be found, complete with accessories and warranty paper, for $3500 - $3800.

I think you will not regret if you buy a GMT. here's mine 16710

Dan Pierce · 12 December 2009, 11:00 PM

If you get the pepsi you can always add the other bezel options.

My favorite Rolex

kha · 13 December 2009, 12:40 AM

wow you boys are really proud of your pepsis. for good reason though. they are sex on your wrist! how hard is it to swap the bezel?

KarlFr · 13 December 2009, 12:47 AM

With some practice insert is swapped within a few minutes, not hard. here's my GMT 16710 with pepsi and coke

kelly56 · 13 December 2009, 12:59 AM

Stunning.

I wish I had kept my Pepsi GMT. It's by far the one I miss the most. Like Dan said, it's easy to swap out bezels and give it a totally different look too. If you're lucky enough to score a Jubilee bracelet for it, you've got it made.

Speed · 13 December 2009, 08:41 AM

I posted this elsewhere... But my local RSC manager advised NOT to swap bezels very often as this would wear out the case connection. As a result, I have kept my Coke..a Coke

I would also think you risk gouging your GMT....no???

kha · 13 December 2009, 09:41 AM

What is a jubilee bracelet? So far my search has yielded only prices of $5000+, not even a full set. Anyone want to sell theirs for the aforementioned 3-3.5? :)

kha · 13 December 2009, 09:42 AM

i recall seeing a photo (i think on here) of all he available bezels too, anyone know the one i am talking about? i could have swore there were like 20 of them!

USCpaneristi · 13 December 2009, 12:12 PM

The nice thing about the market being the way it is is that nowadays you can find one that comes with all three bezels for a decent price. Don't have one (yet, maybe someday), but they sure are good lookin' watches. Happy hunting!
