HANDS-ON: The Rolex GMT-Master II Pepsi (ref. 126710 BLRO)
Anticipation was high for a GMT-Master II release at Basel 2018; however, almost everyone in the business of speculating was predicting a rival carbonated beverage with near certainty, since the Pepsi flavour was already representing the solid white gold variant of the Rolex traveller’s watch.
