About this watch
One thing all watch collectors can agree upon is that tool watches are to be celebrated. The GMT, originally designed for pilots, has many classic crossovers for use in the military, and this Pepsi GMT is a prime example. Purchased in early 1968, this incredible watch accompanied pilot and CW2, William Speed Davis Jr., through various military experiences, including his year-long tour in Vietnam (November 1968-November 1969). It is while wearing this watch that William earned and was awarded multiple medals, including ARCOM with a "V Device." Not only is this piece part of watch-making history, but it is also part of our military history. If you are looking for the perfect Rolex with military provenance, this will be hard to beat. This watch comes with the original hang tag, serial tag, outer box, and a copy of William Speed Davis Jr.'s decommission letter.
