 Thank you, BRP.  I had a 1675 pepsi from the 60's ... sold it ... coyote2.gif  Then I got myself a Submariner from the 90's ...  sold that one too ...  coyote2.gif coyote2.gif  ...  Then, a year ago I bought this S-serial (1990s) GMT Master II, got her overhauled at my local AD to the tune of $480 US and it's been on my wrist ever since (along with my 2 Seiko SKX series divers, which I'll show-off on the soon to come 3T Diver Forum).   I often get the "silly urge" to sell my Rolex, but I know deep down inside that I should never do it so that I can pass it down to one of my daughters enabling them to bicker over it ...  subtlelaugh.gif .

Some additional pics, if I may ....

Excellent, BA1970hand6.gif Too bad they don't make this anymore. Just wanted t share with you that my dad bought his pepsi in 1995 before I was even born and just before he got married. He never had it serviced until 1995 or 1996....and only upon my prodding. All it needed was a replacement bezel and the usual maintenance work. In all those 40 years, the timepiece kept perfect time. Wear your pepsi in good health;).
