GMT bezel insert identification needed??

Castle4444 · Aug 20, 2018

Morning gentlemen,
Great little delivery this morning of this lovely vintage coke insert. It was purchased to go on my 16710 (as it was advertised). I did wonder about the wear not being consistent with the age of 16710 bezel but bought it regardless.
Soooo.... when I tried to fit it, it wasn’t happening! I can only assume it’s for a later model, can anyone throw some light on this????

Take it to a watchmaker, he will fit it for you.
It may be flattened out..

The back profile is different to the Pepsi insert that was originally on, fairly confident it’s for a different model

This one is for a sapphire. The black and read was not available on the 4 digit reference.
Can you snap a pic of the pepsi? Could have been for a plastic model..

Or did you mean the back of the insert? Mine is a 1991 16710 gmt.
