Description

The VS Factory GMT-Master II–style Pepsi Meteorite combines a distinctive meteorite-style dial with the iconic red-and-blue “Pepsi” color combination. The result is a bold GMT-inspired timepiece designed around the recognizable proportions of a modern 40mm travel watch.

The watch features a 40mm 904L stainless-steel case with a screw-down crown, solid case construction and a sapphire-style crystal. Its sporty profile makes it suitable for both everyday wear and travel-inspired styling.

The standout feature is the meteorite-style dial, which provides a distinctive textured appearance. Luminous hour markers and hands enhance visibility, while the dedicated GMT hand allows the wearer to track an additional time zone.

The red-and-blue ceramic-style 24-hour bezel provides the classic “Pepsi” color combination. Its bidirectional GMT bezel features a 24-hour graduated scale that works together with the GMT hand to display an additional time zone.

The watch is equipped with a 3285-style automatic GMT mechanical movement, providing hours, minutes, seconds, date and second-time-zone functionality. The automatic winding system allows the movement to wind during normal wrist movement.

The Oyster-style bracelet features solid three-piece links and a folding safety clasp, complementing the 40mm case and giving the watch a sporty, versatile appearance.

The genuine 126710BLRO reference is a 40mm Oystersteel GMT-Master II with a red-and-blue Cerachrom bezel and calibre 3285. However, the genuine 126710BLRO configuration traditionally has a black dial, so the meteorite-style dial described here is a VS Factory/non-authentic configuration rather than a genuine Rolex specification.
