Description:

This is the iconic Rolex GMT-Master II “Pepsi” 126710BLRO, featuring the highly sought-after Mark I Cerachrom bezel — distinguishable by its deeper, slightly muted red and blue tones, reminiscent of vintage models. A modern reissue with unmistakable heritage, this piece pays homage to the original Pan Am pilot watches of the 1950s, now reimagined in 904L Oystersteel with a sleek Jubilee bracelet.

Inside beats the robust Caliber 3285 movement with a 70-hour power reserve, independent hour-hand adjustment, and the precision you expect from a Superlative Chronometer.

Mark I Bezel Details:

Produced during the initial production run of the 126710BLRO (approx. 2018–2019), the Mark I bezel insert is prized among collectors for its more subdued, matte-like color profile — a clear contrast to later, brighter Mark II inserts. These early bezels are now out of production, making them increasingly scarce and collectible.
