This replica GMT-Master 126710BLRO carries the red-and-blue ceramic bezel that revived the “Pepsi” nickname for a new generation of GMT-Master II watches. The V2 designation on this version indicates updated finishing details that refine the overall build. At 40mm in Oystersteel, the 126710BLRO represents the current-production Pepsi GMT, inheriting decades of recognition from the original 1955 reference that started the red-blue tradition.

Case & Movement Specs

• Case diameter: 40mm
• Case material: Oystersteel
• Bezel: red and blue ceramic bi-directional (“Pepsi”)

Producing a two-tone ceramic bezel in red and blue requires a single piece of ceramic that transitions between colors at the 6 o’clock mark. The technical difficulty behind this process is what delayed the ceramic Pepsi for years after Rolex introduced single-color ceramic bezels.

Caliber Breakdown

The automatic GMT movement inside the 126710BLRO allows the local hour hand to jump independently in one-hour increments. Set your home time zone on the 24-hour GMT hand, adjust local time as you cross zones, and the date advances automatically at midnight local. The architecture mirrors every other current-generation GMT-Master, but the Pepsi bezel turns a functional travel watch into an icon. See how this compares to the 126719BLRO with meteorite dial, which shares the red-blue bezel but in white gold with an exotic dial. Both live in the GMT-Master catalog, targeting different audiences with the same color DNA.

How It Compares

The Pepsi is the most recognizable GMT-Master variant, making it the default choice for anyone entering the collection. Compared to the Batman and Root Beer, it offers maximum visual contrast and historical weight. The red-blue combination works with summer wardrobes and casual settings particularly well, though its versatility extends to business casual without effort. If instant recognition matters to you, no other rolex gmt reference delivers it as consistently. This replica GMT-Master 126710BLRO in its V2 revision captures that heritage with improved finishing across every surface.
