Any Pepsi 126710blro Mk1 owners out there?

After months of searching I finally managed to snap one locally.

Realised that Mk1 Bezel is ever changing under different lighting:)

Please share yours too:)





Side by side comparison with Mk3



Thank you for watching and don’t forget to share yours;)

Best!
Ben

Not sure which Mk mine is but the light really changes it. Looks like a black and red bezel with overcast and really pops with sunlight. I just got mine 2 weeks ago… mk2?3?4?93?

Looks like Mk2 to me. Mk3 almost looks like a coke bezel in indoor lighting.

Did you crack the bezel insert when you dropped the watch? or did RSC just replace it for no reason?

Is it just the bezel that determines which MK? How about dial variations? And how about the sapphire crystal AR coating?
