I think I will have to let some pieces go to pay for this one but I think it is worth it. There is something in the blue dial I really like. I wonder if people will notice that this is not a standard Pepsi or will it fly stealthily under the radar?

Congrats ! From the bracelet alone even from afar I can tell this is not the standard Pepsi But being WG, it’s still relatively discreet compared to coloured gold so still can fly under the radar I feel. A very versatile watch ! Enjoy in the best of health ! Cheers Robin

As to whether it will fly under the radar, I can already answer: no, it won't. Congratulations, this is a great acquisition. If only I could, I would.

From the pictures, I see different shades of blue between bezel and dial, which I don't necessarily love. I guess that it looks much better in real life. Btw, wearing that shirt means that you knew in advance that you were going to pull the trigger 😉 Enjoy it in the best health!
