By | January 13, 2022

The Rolex Pepsi has been around since the GMT-Master first debuted in the mid-1950s. In fact, Rolex has made blue and red bezels out of bakelite, aluminum, and now Cerachrom ceramic. While today’s GMT-Master II is very different from those of the past, there are some similar design features and functions that tie together all generations of this instantly recognizable timepiece designed for international travel. So let’s delve into the history, evolution, and progression of the famous pilot’s watch with this ultimate guide to the replica Rolex GMT with its blue and red bezel.
Introduced in 1959, the GMT-Master Pepsi ref. 1675 was Rolex’s second generation of pilot’s watches. This time, Rolex chose to equip the replica watch from the outset with an aluminum bezel insert instead of the brittle bakelite. Similar to its predecessor, the GMT-Master 1675 is made of stainless steel and comes with a blue and red Pepsi bezel. However, the new features of this model are the introduction of a crown protector and a larger 40 mm case size. Other variations, such as a yellow gold model with a brown bezel and a steel model with an all-black bezel, appeared later.
It is not unusual for the GMT-Master 1675 Pepsi to have very faded bezels. Some have turned light blue and light pink, while others have partly turned an attractive fuchsia color.
The Reference 16700 was the last GMT-Master watch made by Rolex. The main difference between the GMT-Master and GMT-Master II is that the latter has independently adjustable 12-hour and 24-hour hands, which means that the wearer can set the second time zone using only the hands This meant that the wearer could set the second time zone using only the hands, freeing up the rotating bezel for quick access to the third time zone.
Although fake Rolex had already introduced the GMT-Master II in 1982, it released the GMT-Master 16700 as a more affordable option. The GMT-Master 16700 was only available in stainless steel and came with a blue and red Pepsi bezel or an all-black bezel. The Rolex ref. 16710 is the second model in the GMT-Master II series. It replaced the GMT-Master II 16760 in 1989 and was in production until 2007. the GMT-Master II 16710 was designed to be more affordable than the older ref. 16760 and was offered with three types of bezels: black and red, all black, and of course red and blue – Pepsi.
