Technical Query, Help

Hi Everyone!
Can you help with this?

Seen a Black bezel for a "1657" GMT on E-Bay. Will this fit my 16570 GMT "Pepsi"?
Would be nice to have a different look after 22 years, and cheaper than buying another Rolex!

Many thanks.

Welcome to TRF!

I believe you mean "1675" and "16750".

Anyway, here is an overview over the bezel styles and their part numbers that will fit the GMT 16750:

Welcome to TRF!

You're right! Changing bezel inserts is a lot cheaper than buying a new Rolex. I change mine all of the time & it's good to get a different look every once in a while.

If you decide to do it & want to do it yourself, here is Jocke's tutorial on how to change the insert. It's pretty easy just take your time.

Good Luck!
