Exactly Ken. That's why I went that route and have never regretted it. The Pepsi bezel GMT is an icon among watches. You will never regret owning a Rolex! They may wear a little small to a he-man like Hucky but the quality inherent in a Rollie is anything but small.

I would like to get in a Panny soon too though...crap.gif


I had a Pepsi bezel for awhile and upgraded to the  SS/Gold which was "all the rage" at the time...I do like it.  I think it has the right mix of gold and SS, and I wore it for years on a daily basis alternating between my Seiko SNA281, a custom Seiko Gold dress watch, an 18k Rolex Presidential Day/Date, Breitling Windrider and my Glycine Airman.  It's a great watch, but with the addition of other great watches to my "collection", it spends most of the time in the safe.  It is one that will get passed down to one of my boys while the other will get the Breitling and the Airman.
