marrickvilleboy Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 Hi guys, Never got into the loop of Rolexes, mainly an Omega guy, but I have been bitten by the GMT 1675 Pepsi model. So I was hoping to see if any of you guys can shed some light on who offers the best replica for this model? I have done a search but couldn't gather much Thanks in advance.

valerian Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 I believe you're looking for BK's Noob version. See here It's the best out of the box. Kind regards Val. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your help Val, but that is a GMT-master II. I was looking more at the vintage GMT-master I version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By-Tor Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 I have done a search but couldn't gather much That's because there's nothing out there. There has never been even one half-decent replication of the 1675. Weird but true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird but true. Thanks for chiming in By-tor. Can you give a quick run down on what are the main flaws to what the dealers are offering and the genuine piece? Thanks mate, I know your good at this stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 Marrick, they're all wrong. I mean fundamentally wrong. I think some members have managed to create decent 1675's but it required tons of effort and different parts... you virtually have to rebuild the whole watch. There's absolutely NOTHING done correctly on the 1675 reps. Dials, cases and crystals... all very inaccurate. I'd wait for a while... since Joshua released a new batch of vintage Subs and Dwellers (that are fairly decent) there's hope that we'll eventually see a 1675. Just a wild guess though... maybe ask Joshua? If you want a decent classic Pepsi GMT, Valerian's suggestion is the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marrickvilleboy Posted April 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 Thanks alot for that By-tor. That really is a shame. The 1675 is such a nice watch. Well we will have to just wait i guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
