They will make the LN, Batman and Explorers first. Pepsi is still a long way out. Angus confirmed this previously.

Any update when a GMT with correct color Pepsi bezel and Jubilee bracelet will be released?

Look 2 posts up. Still under development. Sad, but at least they are trying to make it the right way, not the way others have been doing it (Aluminum bezel, or horrible looking ceramic)

So, 1-2 months from now ?

I gave up already. Too much waiting - I went ahead ordered Noob's latest 904l CHS version and plan to swap the Gen datewheel overlay and a gen bezel.

I know the movement is a ticking bomb but I have a watch winder to keep the right time so I don't have to set the time that frequently. Hopefully it will last till the time ARF comes up with its true clone.

Only the CHS Case will work. But you need to build a custom movement ring. Otherwise it won't work.

Can you please send me the link. Also Ive heard of someone on the forums did a gmt build using a v9 noob submariner base but put gmt movement inside and other parts on it. did you hear of that?

I guess you can put a genuine ETA 2893-2 inside one of these but you will probably need a movement holder (to achieve the correct stem height) and probably change the pinion as it won't be long enough to attach the hands once you put the movement holder.

Grimlocktime did that build but the case engravings and crown guards will be wrong for a 116710. Bracelet won't have polished center links and incorrect clasp and clasp/end link engravings.

I have a gen gmt movement so I'm basically looking for the best case for it. Thoughts?
