Do any of the GMT Pepsi inserts fit a 16800 Sub bezel?

As the post's title - do any of the Rolex GMT Pepsi inserts fit into a 16800 Sub bezel?

I have tried resting an insert on top of the 16800 bezel and it looks good but will it actually fit into the bezel?

Be brave try it , I have a 16800 & it would be interesting to see . Not sure why you would want a GMT 24 hour bezel on a sub but go ,on I dare you .

Probably an idle question but I am just curious.

Would it fit the bezel (not on the watch), yes. The outer dimension is approximately the same.
Issue is the inner dimension.

1675/16750 outer dimension 37.7 mm / inner 30 mm
16800 outer dimension 37.65/ inner 30.70 mm

Not brave enough to try it - anyone willing to give it a go?
