Could anyone tell what kind of watch Jay Hernandez was wearing as Magnum?

According to Lenov (sp?) on his Instagram it was a later model Rolex GMT from Lenov's wrist

I'd say it was a mid 2000's version that has the solid end link, aluminum bezel insert (current GMT's have ceramic) and SuperLuminova for seeing the indices at night.
EDIT: In the trailer though I didn't see much of the "Pepsi" bezel. It looked more like a stunt double to me. Which did happen in the original series too, but I think it was more the close-up they used with a hand double, vs doing stunt work
EDIT to the edit: went back to check it out and it does look like the Pepsi bezel is visible. Good to see it used in the action sequences

I'll have to go watch again. I was looking for the Pepsi bezel but did notice it.

Found a few stills displaying the new GMT, as well as a few shots of TS wearing his GMT Master.

I believe the new watch (Lenkov's) actually has a coke (black/red) bezel. I remember seeing it on his instagram feed.

Yes, looks like Coke GMT - upped the saturation and the red is clear but the other half seems black, not blue

Classic Pepsi GMT (red/blue) bezel insert. JH has been seen wearing a newer model, nicknamed "batman" due to the black/blue bezel which is a scratch-proof ceramic material. I'm wondering if the watch will be updated to this newer style and the Pepsi vintage model was just used for the pilot.
