I recently sent my Steinhart GMT in to Debaufre. First I got a new bracelet and then a new bezel insert. They turned both around in one day. Amazing service and super nice emails.

Some will think I'm nuts for switching from a Pepsi Bezel to a Coke bezel (i.e. black/red), but I prefer Coke :D. I owned a Rolex GMT in these colors for many years and it was a great watch. I wore it to death before selling it.

The Steinhart is a dead ringer for the old GMT now. Except it is 2-3mm larger case size and it has a more substantial bracelet. The newer Rolex GMT's are of course awesome, but I'm very happy with my two Steinharts now.

The cost to make the bezel insert switch was $25 + $15 for return shipping. That included installation. You can't beat it.

Pepsi

Coke

The Rootbeer color is available from Debaufre or Robert watch. Black on the top and sort of an orange on the bottom. Black+Orange=rootbeer :D

Here's your rootbeer

I still like Pepsi.

Nice to hear of a customer service success. Seems to be the standard with these guys. They must be doing something right... I still hate the name change! face4.gif 


Looks great Mike. Did you keep the Pepsi bezel?

Another vote for the Coke bezel here.

That beautiful watch is much improved IMHO.
