Hey all -

I just purchased a vintage Root Beer Zodiac GMT (still looking for the pepsi GMT) that is in great shape- however the bezel is a bit faded and wanted to know if anyone has inserts for this watch OR if the rolex gmt bezel's would fit the zodiac gmt.

HELP!

Hi Lido. I can answer the first part here. Not sure if the Rolex bezel will fit it though. Good question!

Maybe one of the others can help you out though.

Thanks for the help!- the fade on the bezel looks good but i wish it was just a bit more crisp.

FWIW, that one was not very vibrant to begin with. Take a look at the 1990 manuals to see al three color choices, that one was the most washed out new.

Lido, you may want to take a look at eBay auction 121153554249 for one similar to yours.
