Rolex GMT-Master II

Rolex GMT-Master II Ref. 126710BLRO (Steel, 2021) “Pepsi”

The 2021 Rolex GMT-Master II, reference 126710BLRO, is one of the most sought-after and iconic references in the entire watch world. As a direct descendant of the original GMT-Master from 1954, it pays homage to the fascinating era of transatlantic aviation. The undisputed hallmark of this reference is its two-tone bezel in red and Blue Cerachrom ceramic, affectionately known by collectors around the world as “Pepsi”. The combination of exceptionally durable Oystersteel, world-famous colors, and state-of-the-art three-time-zone functionality makes this chronometer the ultimate status symbol for frequent travelers and connoisseurs.

• Sought-after 40 mm Oystersteel case: The case, made of high-strength 904L stainless steel, offers the perfect diameter and universal proportions. The combination of satin-finished surfaces and mirror-polished sides gives the watch its sporty yet luxurious look.

• Iconic two-tone red/Blue Cerachrom bezel: The bidirectional 24-hour bezel is made using Rolex’s complex ceramic process. The red half indicates daytime hours, while the Blue half indicates nighttime hours. The engraved numerals are coated with a fine layer of platinum using the PVD process.

• Deep black dial with red GMT hand: The high-contrast dial stands out with its distinctive red-lacquered 24-hour hand. The generously sized indices and hands are made of 18-karat White Gold and ensure perfect legibility thanks to blue-glowing Chromalight luminescent material.

• In-house caliber 3285: Inside beats a new-generation automatic movement. Equipped with the antimagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring, Paraflex shock protection system, and Chronergy escapement, the caliber offers a power reserve of approximately 70 hours with the utmost precision (-2/+2 seconds per day).

• True “flyer” GMT function: When traveling, the main hour hand can be moved forward or backward independently in one-hour increments, without stopping the movement or affecting the minute display.

• Scratch-resistant Sapphire Crystal with Cyclops lens: A flat Sapphire Crystal protects the dial. The legendary date magnifier at 3 o’clock enlarges the date display two and a half times for perfect readability.

• Reliable water resistance (100 m / 10 ATM): The screw-down Triplock winding crown with its triple-seal system, together with the screw-down case back, ensures absolute reliability on every adventure.

• Five-link Jubilee or three-link Oyster bracelet: The “Pepsi” is worn on the highly elegant Jubilee bracelet or the sporty Oyster bracelet in Oystersteel. The Oysterlock safety folding clasp is fitted with the practical Easylink extension system (5 mm).

• Global collector’s icon with outstanding value retention (2021): As an immaculate example from 2021, reference 126710BLRO is at the very top of global demand. A breathtaking highlight for any distinguished watch collection.
