Rolex Hand In Glove Shot Of The Day


...Rolex Hand In Glove Shot Of The Day...

Pepsi Rolex GMT-Master
Vintage Rolex Driving A Vintage Mustang

Calgary is a reader of Jake's Rolex World and he recently sent in the following image with a note:

Hello Jake,

Just wanted to share with you a nice photo with my 1999 GMT-Master II and 2008 Mustang GT.

Not a bad match at all is it? 

Take care mate & great work, awesome blogs!

Best,

Dogu



Of course, the cool thing about this photo is how the red, blue and silver on the Pespi bezel match the red, blue and silver of the mustang logo. I hope Rolex brings back the stainless steel GMT-Master with the pepsi bezel, since it is so trademark iconic!!!

* Note: I used the term "Vintage" to describe the 2008, Mustang, as well as the 1999 GMT. Vintage in my mind is any model no longer made. Just like a bottle of wine from 2008 would be a "Vintage 2008" wine.

It is profound when you consider this article was published 22 years ago!!!
