Please share yours too:)





Side by side comparison with Mk3



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

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?

TBH the MK1 was really what made me want the modern pepsi.. but after being forced to wait I'm glad I ended up with a late 2021 gen bezel. It tends to blend in more with daily wear and clothing choices and just brings a sense of subtle class. I'll always love the boldness of the MK1s though and hopefully will scoop one up eventually to offset my current BLRO.

nothing like a BLRO or any Rolex under the sun
I love the way my Hulk Dial reacts to light
