Hi guys... thoughts. Relumed? Case looks unpolished, no?

It does look unpolished. Going to take the plunge into Bell-Matics? They're fun watches.

I don't recall seeing one with a Pepsi bezel, so you'll have to double-down on any efforts to find one. The Bell-Matic is a fun watch to collect - there are some hard to find variations out there: very early dolphin case back, 21J movement, Business Bell, and the date-only 4005.
Let the hunt begin!

Not really but you'll probably need to buy a parts watch. That said, they made zillions of these things, so it wouldn't take long. But for that watch, considering it has the original chiclet bracelet, I'd say it's worth it. I'd buy it. The bezel isn't missing is it? If it is is it tough to source?

I mean, I kinda need one don't I? It is my favorite Bell! In fact it's the only BellMatic I ever really wanted. Here's mine for your reference. I'm not an expert but I bought this from a collector in Spain...
