I have most families of the professional range. The Explorer II and the GMT are beyond any criticism. The hands on the dive watches need to be broader,. Why is the pip on the second hand of the Sub smaller than the GMT? There should be no scissors on the Daytona that obscure the red writing. The watch is hard to read.
Charlie happy Sunday!🙏🏼I have the GRNR. The Pepsi is very nice but for the price I believe the Batgirl is the best deal. I don’t believe Rolex gonna discontinue the Pepsi this year.
Hey Mike. How do you like your GRNR? There’s a lot of value there with the gray price and it’s a fuckin stunner. Do you have any buyers remorse over maybe a Pepsi or batgirl or even 2 tone root beer? Thanks man.
@@marshallm6888 Totally agree the GRNR is one of the best GMT II. No buyers remorse. It’s definitely more dressy looking.🤔I was just recently at my local AD. They had both Rootbeer and Batgirl but unfortunately exhibition.
@@mikelewis2456 I was curious about how dressy it is. I restarted my collection recently, and only have a new 41 sub no date. So my next piece is pretty critical. I think it’s gotta be a gmt, and it’s gotta be jubilee. Do I pay market price for a Pepsi? Or get the grnr and get better value? I gotta admit the grnr speaks to me…
I bought my Pepsi from LWC just under a month ago. It's my favourite watch in my (small) collection, super comfortable to wear and easy to read. I'd say it actually keeps better time too compared to my sub and datejust. Only thing I was surprised about was the dark colours, I was expecting them to be a more vivid bright red and blue, but they're actually a much darker almost purple blue and maroon red. Love it!
Glad to hear you are enjoying the Pepsi James! Such a stunning model in person isn't it, images and videos don't do the bezel justice compared to in the flesh do they! Thanks for watching! 🙌
A friend of mine got a gmt pepsi just recently, after flipping his batman he got from the AD and paid the extra on top. He was after that model for a very long time, and was very happy with his purchase. I had the chance to put it on myself, and sure it's a lovely pice, but i really missed the essence it has lost from what its initial intended purpose was. A more expensive, but durable and reliable tool watch. Which for me was the 16750, that i loved from the first time i saw in Magnum PI back in the 90s. Today's GMT while still functional it feels more like a jewellery and certainly costs like one, doesn't really have its tool watch roots anymore. This isn't meant to say people shouldn't enjoy theirs, but for me the 16750 will always be the one :)
For me, there is NO better tool watch made. I use every single function ALL THE TIME: the seconds hand, minute hand, hour hand, date window, and the 24hr hand (sometimes as a GMT hand, other times as a “Home time” hand). If you travel to/from different time zones, or have family/friends that live in different time zones, or do business regularly in different time zones, then there is NO BETTER GMT made. There may be equals, but no better. The Apple Iwatch has a few limitations as well as advantages, so even it is no better. That’s just me.
IF you can get your hands on a BLNR bezel and ring you can have the bezt of both worlds or the otehr way round wit a BLRO bezel ring (hard to find) but pop the whole bezel ring off and swap them over and you can have both. Gratned the GMT hand will not match the but as one it red and the other is blue it kinda works either way. It just find the bezel ring and inserts that is hard!
Fantastic video Charlie & for me cements why the Pepsi on Jubilee is the best modern day Rolex. As a future video, can you wear the two tone Bluesy for a week & also review this as it’s such a banger of a watch that often gets overlooked.
Thank you mate I really appreciate that so glad you enjoyed it! The Pepsi is such a great watch isn’t it! Really good idea, I’ll see what I can do regarding the Bluesy 👌🏻
@@thehonestwatchdealer It was brilliant Charlie as showcased the Pepsi with a range of different clothes you wore & gave a true sense of what the watch is like to live with & the fact it made you smile just sums up why the Pepsi is the King of the GMT line. Great stuff mate. Would love to see you do the same for the Bluesy as it’s such an icon in its own right.
@@unclejonga ah thank you I really appreciate the great feedback! Absolutely, the Pepsi is the king of GMTs….could the Bluesy be the king of the Subs 😆
Batgirl works on jubilee. But the Pepsi should always be oyster as per 50s heritage. I have a batgirl. I am looking for an oyster Pepsi had name down at ad 18 months. I’ll wait see what Rolex announce hate paying grey market prices
Thanks for another great vid mate. Did it feel top heavy? Sometimes I think with the jubilee it would feel top heavy and capsize vs with the oyster where I feel it would have more weight underneath balancing the watch head better. How is the wearing experience vs the blueberry? Which one is more comfortable?
Great if you can get one without feeling like you’ve been robbed, let’s be absolutely honest you’re paying thousands and thousands above actual retail.
I got one on oyster march 2023 and I was bummed it was on oyster. But my AD said last week that was the last one they've gotten in. Glad I didn't say I'd wait for the next jubilee. I go in every few months to see if they let you order the jubilee bracelet. Still, no. Crazy that people are saying it might get d/c'd. I'll sell mine for 50k. I bought it to keep for life but 50k is 50k. Who knows.
Great review. When picking up my Batgirl a few days ago AD Manager and I had a lengthy chat about the Pepsi availability. Interesting potential insight is that the colour issue has been improved BUT the time it takes to manufacture one is significantly longer and therefore less efficient than the Sprite and Batman/Batgirl hence the lack of numbers being made. Makes sense from a business point of view. Why produce a watch with a similar price point RRP when it is let’s say 30% more time/effort to produce.
@@thehonestwatchdealerdo you predict a rise in grey market price of the Pepsi if it gets discontinued or will the hype of the predicted new Coke overshadow the demand for Pepsis?
@@user-do3rm1yu1p Very hard to say how it will affect it, sometimes models flood the market on the news of discontinuation, but over time it should appreciate 🙌
That’s a good point. I’m sure there are plenty of people who ‘got the call’ on their Pepsi in 2023 thinking to flip and now waiting to see if it’s discontinued because watches and wonders is just around the corner. I got offered £15,500 for my Pepsi on an oyster from a dealer last week which I think is a great price.
I'm lucky enough to have a 2022 Pepsi on an Oyster, I went for the Oyster guessing the AD's list might be shorter. Took me about a year to obtain. Like you I love the watch. I agree the jubilee is more comfortable (I have a fluted Wimbledon gold/steel on Jubilee). The other down side on the Oyster is the highly polished centre links and no matter how much care you take hairline scratches seem to appear. That doesn't seem to be the case with a Jubilee. In terms of wearing the 41mm of the date Sub v. 40mm of the GMT II I don't really notice any difference they both wear super comfortable. The plus point of the Oyster bracelet on the Sub is the mat finish. That does mask the hairline scratches. So, yes, the Jubilee trumps the Oyster but you might just find the Oyster more readily available. I just need to get that Daytona now! Thanks for the video!
I get my bracelets satinised like the Submariner bracelet: easy and rewarding. I get the tops of the crown guards satinised like they were in the1970s.
Congratulations on getting one, not a bad wait time at all! Yes you are right, the jubilee hides the scratches much more easily and is way more comfortable 👌🏻
This is my daily watch and i really love it! As always, very nice video Charlie! I had the same thoughts about jubilee but it is a so comfortable and beautiful bracelet! 👍🏻
considering a GMT on Jubilee to be worn by me now, and my daughter at some point...what do you think of this watch as a unisex model? or would you go with the two-tone white dialed Daytona which you have described as having popularity as a unisex model?
@@thehonestwatchdealer yes.. I have a feeling I have fallen out of favor with my AD first some reason though. I went through about 6 years with my Rolex AD of being able to literally any piece I wanted. The last 2 to 3 years has been completely desolate for me. I have no idea why though. It’s very strange. I have never ever flipped them. I tried wracking my brain but I can’t see any reason. Luckily though this was when we were experiencing the masively inflated pre-owned market. I have a feeling it’s because I have asked to be on waitlists for watches I already own e.g a skydweller blue dial.. i already own a bimetallic piece, a gmt Batman.. i already have a gmt Pepsi and Ofcourse the Daytona of which i have the black dial and have my name down to get the white dial. After thinking about this… maybe this is the reason. However when I talk to my Rolex AD, I am being told that I am still being considered for the skydweller. I guess I have to take him at his word as I don’t really have a choice. I also have not experienced this with AP either. I am now more likely to purchase my watches from pre-owned outlets due to the downward trend in the watch market, namely Rolex. It’s like you have pointed out you can basically get a ss GMT for around 12k. I have locked in my Daytona panda for £23.5k. I know this is still a lot of money but I don’t mind biting the bullet for such a wonderful piece.
Hey man got a question - when you say 'get your spend up' can that include other Rolex's? For example I can buy an Air-King at the AD ... will that help me get the desirable Rolex's in the future?
Great video. Pepsi is way overpriced due to the hype. That Sky Dweller is coming down in price to compete with the Pepsi. I would pick the blue face Sky Dweller any day over a Pepsi since I am seeing them at the same price now. The Sky Dweller is much better value for the money.
I have both bracelets. What I would say is the biggest difference to me is the comfort. The jubilee hugs the wrist perfectly and feels like silk. The oyster is nice too but comfort wise, the jubilee wins.
@@thehonestwatchdealer thx for replying 👍 new subscriber love your content on Rolex. Probably wait for coke next year . Rolex have new patent since 2021 for production for coke bezel where it won’t crack can’t wait. Can you do segment on coke coming next year thank you 🙏
I dare you to daily the "Fast Eddie Felson" for a week. Sure a 36mm, silver dial, stainless steel Datejust on a jubilee is a boring watch. However Paul Newman wearing it in The Colour of Money, automatically makes it cool. I suspect it will probably be very comfortable on the wrist. Hope you've had a great weekend.
So we are in the North of England, as with most cities around the world, there are dangerous parts where it would be best advised to not wear your watch! 🙌
Sorry not related to GMT but what is the best spec for investment and popularity for the Wimbledon? I know what spec I like but want to know what you think is the best spec to get.
@@JammyDodger45 the fluted wimbledon with jubilee is “white rolesor” which is white gold according to Rolex website you dick. Hence my Q for clarification because I didn’t think there was an entirely steel one. I’m not a watch trader and asked for clarification. Get lost, I wasn’t asking you.
@@daniel-j-harris Yes so the bezel is white gold, the rest of the watch is stainless steel. Unfortunately the yellow gold bi-metal versions are quite a lot underlist 👍
I really don't like jubilé, too flashy. I was offred one this week 2021 never worn at 15k euro. I passed. I waiting for a coke that I like the color combination than red/blue. One question comes to my mind, in your opinion how many of the owners use the gmt function? 😂
Ah it does mate it more of a dress watch! Would be great if they release the Coke, we will have to see what happens! Regarding your question - I have no idea! 😆
Me got one! I have as part of my collection 12 Rolex, 6 AP and 1 Cartier. I love the Pepsi but I love all my watches equally. My collection includes: 1 x ss Daytona black dial, 1 x GMT Master 2 Pepsi, a bi metallic sky dweller, 1 x James Cameron deep sea (this is my personal favorite), 1 x yacht master 40 with blue dial, 1 x ss yacht master 2, 1 x explorer 2 white dial, 2 x OPs includes 1 x 39mm blue dial, 1 x 41mm green dial, 3 x datejust 41mm including 1 x Wimbledon on a everrose oyster bracelet, 1 x blue dial with diamond digits on a ss oyster bracelet, 1 x mother of pearl with diamond digits on a bimetallic yellow gold jubilee bracelet My AP collection: 2 Royal Oak offshores 1 chronograph off shore 44 mm nicknamed “the vampire”. 1 divers watch with blue dial and yellow accents. 3 Royal Royal Oaks 2 x seconds hand and date: 1 x white dial and 1 x black dial. 1 x 41mm and 1 blue dial chronograph 41mm with offset date at the 4/5 dial location. Cartier: Tank (40% off msrp) blue dial 40 mm. Been lucky but am still after 1 more GMT with bimetallic everrose oyster bracelet and 1 more Daytona ss bracelet with white dial… 8 might have to get one through a watch finder type out let. All the watches I own are directly news from my Rolex and AP AD. Then I will feel complete. Please not no submariner. I can’t bring myself to buy this line of Rolex.
Hi Charlie, As a Rolex buyer & wearer, I just wanted to give you my opinion on the GMT Pepsi, with Jubilee bracelet, I hate that watch, & wouldn’t purchase at half list, but thank you for the video. 😅
got my Pepsi on Oyster last March and haven't taken it off since. Stunning watch through and through
I don't blame you, such a stunning model mate, enjoy it! 🙏
The strap looked looser than a wizards sleeve on your wrist 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I like the series. It just isn’t a $23k watch and that is the problem. All the folks at MSRP sure love it.

I have the gold and steel GMT, but what puts me off the Pepsi, Batman and batgirl is the amount of replicas around
Ah yes it is one of the most faked pieces being so popular 👎

Great review. When picking up my Batgirl a few days ago AD Manager and I had a lengthy chat about the Pepsi availability.
Interesting potential insight is that the colour issue has been improved BUT the time it takes to manufacture one is significantly longer and therefore less efficient than the Sprite and Batman/Batgirl hence the lack of numbers being made.

Will the AD frown on pieces I bought on eBay and watch-finder? should I even mention them?
They shouldn’t do 👍
Pepsi jubilee or Starbucks mk2?! Oyster glidelock adjustment is nice on the sub to get perfect fit but imagine the jubilee is very comfy

I’m not surprised mate! Congratulations such a stunning watch, enjoy it! 🙌
That’s funny
I’ve been wearing mine for over a year now
Its just like my old Daytona it keeps good time
What’s the big deal?
You got this review “spot on!”
Haha thank you William! 😆👌🏻
Wonder if they’ll slim down the maxi case as they did with the sub. People used to go on and on about the maxi case but never on the GMT.
Would certainly be interesting, will have to see what happens!

What are the other two mark 2,3 or timeframes?
Banger Video,. Your personal opinion: Daytona Black Dial SS or Pepsi ?
Thank you mate I really appreciate that! Very tough choice, both incredible choices and which will depend on your tastes! 🙌
How much should we pay for Pepsi 2022 please
If you want to get in touch via the website we can discuss your options!

Got mine today. It won’t be coming off in a hurry
Wear it and enjoy it mate, that’s what owning a luxury timepiece is all about! 👌🏻
Thanks for another great one Charlie! Happy St. Patrick's Day!!
Thank you mate glad you liked this one! Same to you, have a good one 🙏
Great video. Pepsi is way overpriced due to the hype. That Sky Dweller is coming down in price to compete with the Pepsi. I would pick the blue face Sky Dweller any day over a Pepsi since I am seeing them at the same price now. The Sky Dweller is much better value for the money.
Thanks for watching mate, glad you liked it!
The Sky-Dweller is definitely a lot of watch for the money 💪
The Pepsi is on my purchase list right behind the Batgirl. Currently I'm seeking an Air King.
All great models to aim for, hopefully you get the call for the Air-King soon 🙌
The Rolex GMT Pepsi is my dream watch. I will never be able to afford it but if i do come into some money, that is the watch i am buying.
Great taste, stunning model to aim for - hopefully you'll get there one day! 🙌
Enjoyable video Charlie, yes nice watch.
Thank you Simon, great watch isn’t it 👌🏻
I think it’s the best watch in the world. GMT is the most functional watch the Pepsi is just gorgeous
Such a stunning model isn't it, thank you for watching! 👍
How light is the jubilee bracelet in comparison to the Oyster. Is it noticeably light?
It’s little lighter imo. I have the Batgirl and I’ve tried on both, but not by much.
I have both bracelets. What I would say is the biggest difference to me is the comfort. The jubilee hugs the wrist perfectly and feels like silk. The oyster is nice too but comfort wise, the jubilee wins.
Great video👍👍does the bezel still crack?? Thank you
Thanks for watching mate 🙏 Apparently they have problems with the bezel in production 👌🏻
@@thehonestwatchdealer thx for replying 👍 new subscriber love your content on Rolex. Probably wait for coke next year . Rolex have new patent since 2021 for production for coke bezel where it won’t crack can’t wait. Can you do segment on coke coming next year thank you 🙏
@@michaellui74 Thank you Michael, welcome to the channel! If it gets confirmed I will certainly do something, all rumours at the moment 👍
I dare you to daily the "Fast Eddie Felson" for a week. Sure a 36mm, silver dial, stainless steel Datejust on a jubilee is a boring watch. However Paul Newman wearing it in The Colour of Money, automatically makes it cool. I suspect it will probably be very comfortable on the wrist. Hope you've had a great weekend.
Ah yes a lot of history with that one! Maybe if we ever get one in!
Thanks for watching mate, have a great weekend yourself 🙏
@@thehonestwatchdealer Hopefully you'll get one in. Cheers.
If I can only have one Rolex, this would be the one! Yes! ahead of Panda Daytona!
Such a great grail watch to aim for, hopefully you manage to get one some day 🙏
Nice video. Will you be wearing Day-date for a week Charlie ? Thanks 😊
Thanks mate I appreciate it! Great idea, will have to see what we can do 👌🏻
That would be awesome!
A rosegold-olive or a full yellowgold with champaigne dial and diamonds
@@sandorkmeth265 👌
I own it, I wear it almost daily, I love it and I wouldn’t trade it for anything else.
Congratulations mate, such a stunning model to daily wear!
The Pepsi is the best love it
Great taste - such a fantastic model 👌🏻
You’re in London right? What’s with these people saying you can’t wear watches like this there? I’m lost…
So we are in the North of England, as with most cities around the world, there are dangerous parts where it would be best advised to not wear your watch! 🙌
I have a GMT Master from 1966, is it worth anything? I have owned and worn daily for 40 years. Looking forward to your thoughts
Wow, very nice, I have the 16700 full set with original sales receipt estimated £9k do your research on it. 👍
Ah excellent, feel free to get in touch via the website and we can take a look for you:

@@Matt-uq3in nice, unfortunately I don’t have any original paperwork, but has been serviced by Rolex.
I don't know why and if I'm on my own here, but I really prefer the mark 1 bezel.
A lot of people agree with you there! 👌🏻
I have a 2018 and it’s the light colour.. do think as it was a shorter run it might be more sort after in the future?
Absolutely, the MK1 Bezels are already more sought after, which will likely increase over time 🙌
@@thehonestwatchdealer thank you for your response all the best mate
@@waynegardner2495 Not a problem at all Wayne!
Doesn't do much for me. Each his own. Prefer Blue face Skydweller by 100%!
Sorry not related to GMT but what is the best spec for investment and popularity for the Wimbledon? I know what spec I like but want to know what you think is the best spec to get.
The best to aim for is Stainless Steel Fluted and Jubilee 👌🏻
@@thehonestwatchdealer that’s the white gold one right? I personally like the contest with yellow gold but the white is growing on me a lot
@@JammyDodger45 the fluted wimbledon with jubilee is “white rolesor” which is white gold according to Rolex website you dick. Hence my Q for clarification because I didn’t think there was an entirely steel one. I’m not a watch trader and asked for clarification. Get lost, I wasn’t asking you.
@@daniel-j-harris Yes so the bezel is white gold, the rest of the watch is stainless steel. Unfortunately the yellow gold bi-metal versions are quite a lot underlist 👍
@@thehonestwatchdealer sweet, thanks. I guess people find bi metal too flashy so they’re less popular?
Isn't this the bezel under a blue light that goes all Red? Love the content. If I had a boss I'd work for you😂
Thats the one!
Thank you mate I really appreciate that 👍
I couldn’t afford the Pepsi so I bought the batgirl. Love it.
Can't go wrong with the Batgirl, stunning model - enjoy it! 🙌
I really don't like jubilé, too flashy. I was offred one this week 2021 never worn at 15k euro. I passed. I waiting for a coke that I like the color combination than red/blue. One question comes to my mind, in your opinion how many of the owners use the gmt function? 😂
Ah it does mate it more of a dress watch!
Would be great if they release the Coke, we will have to see what happens!
Regarding your question - I have no idea! 😆
Nice piece but not worth paying way over list price in my opinion.
Stunning isn’t it! Thanks for watching mate 🙏
This is definitely one for you guys out there!
😆🙌
Not a Rolex, but my UN perpetual calendar dive watch, with blue flinque dial, gives me the same sort of feel he was discussing with the Pepsi.
Thats great to hear, such a great watch - enjoy it!
Thanks for the reply and making great content!
@@mitchellwest4205 Thank you mate I appreciate it, and not a problem!
Been waiting over three and a half years for one of those. It’s gone from hard to get to impossible from the AD. Oh well!
It is very difficult to get from the AD, hopefully you get the call soon 🙏
Me got one! I have as part of my collection 12 Rolex, 6 AP and 1 Cartier. I love the Pepsi but I love all my watches equally. My collection includes:
1 x ss Daytona black dial, 1 x GMT Master 2 Pepsi, a bi metallic sky dweller, 1 x James Cameron deep sea (this is my personal favorite), 1 x yacht master 40 with blue dial, 1 x ss yacht master 2, 1 x explorer 2 white dial, 2 x OPs includes 1 x 39mm blue dial, 1 x 41mm green dial, 3 x datejust 41mm including 1 x Wimbledon on a everrose oyster bracelet, 1 x blue dial with diamond digits on a ss oyster bracelet, 1 x mother of pearl with diamond digits on a bimetallic yellow gold jubilee bracelet
My AP collection:
2 Royal Oak offshores 1 chronograph off shore 44 mm nicknamed “the vampire”. 1 divers watch with blue dial and yellow accents.
3 Royal Royal Oaks 2 x seconds hand and date: 1 x white dial and 1 x black dial. 1 x 41mm and 1 blue dial chronograph 41mm with offset date at the 4/5 dial location.
Cartier:
Tank (40% off msrp) blue dial 40 mm.
Been lucky but am still after 1 more GMT with bimetallic everrose oyster bracelet and 1 more Daytona ss bracelet with white dial… 8 might have to get one through a watch finder type out let. All the watches I own are directly news from my Rolex and AP AD.
Then I will feel complete.
Please not no submariner. I can’t bring myself to buy this line of Rolex.
You been working out, Charlie? Looking trim lad!
I have been mate .. thank you 🙌🏼
Would I change it for my Pikachu ? Absolutely not. Pikachu must be something really special to you 👌🏻💯. Great review!
Oh it will always be a special watch for me as it has come on the journey with me!
Thanks for watching mate glad you liked it 🙏
Love your channel keep it coming
Thank you mate I really appreciate that, glad you like the content 🙏
Love the watch, but I would replace the jubilee bracelet
Ah are you a fan of the Oyster? Looked stunning with that bracelet 👌🏻
Somehow i still prefer the MK1 🤣, can i have your thoughts charlie?
Ah yes the MK1 is a very special bezel isn’t it 👌🏻
Thanks , the best on YT , from germany🔥🙏
Thank you Toni I really appreciate that! Thank for watching over in Germany 🙏
Charlie, what does the Pepsi retail for in the UK? I got quoted a blatant BS price for one from an AD elsewhere recently.
In the late teens for this on the secondary market 👍
@@thehonestwatchdealer That's what they were asking for in a Middle East AD. Criminal, I suspect.
@@Gabe_Itch503 Ah maybe wanting to take some for themselves!
Omega please
If we get one in I'll see what we can do 👌
I’m hoping I get the call for this one. 😢
Fingers crossed for you mate! 🙏
Pepsi… its nice but I have none Rolex so my first one will be a datejust or a sub.
But the video was enjoyable thanks👍
Thank you mate, so glad you liked the video - those are great models to start out with! 🙌
Hi Charlie, As a Rolex buyer & wearer, I just wanted to give you my opinion on the GMT Pepsi, with Jubilee bracelet, I hate that watch, & wouldn’t purchase at half list, but thank you for the video. 😅
Haha everyone has their own tastes Gavin! 😆
Thank you for watching, I appreciate it!
@@thehonestwatchdealer I love you Charlie 🤣
@@gavinsverdloff4291 😆❤
Pepsi! My favorite Rolex model! I hope Rolex does not discontinue the Pepsi. Love your videos. Keep up the great work!!
Thank you mate I really appreciate that! We will have to see what happens at Watches and Wonders 🤞
