I think the red looks correct to the latest gens, it was only the first gen run that had the light red colour and imo looks better now it's a bit darker. Screw it I hate the price game they are playing but i need to try one out I've placed an order

Or knows how to take a good picture of a watch. I can’t get mine to look that red without photoshop - what’s the secret ??

My friend they’re all the same. The more light the brighter the colors get. I’m reading that gen inserts also change a lot with lighting.

So here’s an interesting cross section photo is a gen Pepsi mk3 bezel insert. It looks like the process has changed.

This seems like the process described by Itto on page 9 of this thread, see video below
As explained there, on the gen the red is supposed to have a hint of blue, and the blue a hint of red. This is something that is missing on every picture of the rep that we have seen. And this is why this insert is not gen like

It doesn’t take anything? It took Rolex almost ten years to perfect it in ceramic with all of the machinery and money at their disposal.

Nice pic bro. Looks like they got their act together now. Well, except for the hair in the bottom of the 6. Reject!

Could really use a few new pics here! Any new arrivals today?
Mine seems to be on the longest journey ever from China, tracking says it left on the 15th but still isn't showing as arrived in the UK yet
Ditto. Left China 15th, not arrived UK yet. Maybe they’re on the same plane! ;-)
