I honestly don’t understand why some guys here complaining that much for 500 usd watch and expecting gen quality? I bet you spot flaws on gen watches as well .

As a gen owner from the same model , for the amount your paying for rep , trust me , you get the value of your money , if you are not happy go ahead and mod/franken the watch as you like i guess.

Two almost same angle shots of gen and CF

to me ROF insert colors are the worst compare to genuine (not matter MK 1,2 or 3) any of the CF, NOOB, ARF, VRF are way better..........................

i'd disagree...to red/brown. blue/dark blue. nothing like any no matter MK1,2, or 3. CF, noob, super similar in color. CF having transition lines.
So if your talking color preference then its great that there are options.

VRF and ROF as actually the same. Since i have both inserts and confirmed this already.

ROF/VRF/NOOB have no transition lines. colors are different. so to each their own.
i'm not going to say which is better because we are talking opinion.

its about the watch. what are the positives of why you should consider it and what are the negatives.
In this case we have case, dial, bracelet, etc to conisder.

Can someone explain me what are bezel lips?
i guess i nnow but translate is baaaaad:p

If you look at the photos right above your post, look at the bezel where the edge meets the ceramic insert. You can see a small flat circle that is part of the bezel that does not look correct on the rep. Small flaw, but once you see it then it may bother you. If you are not a perfectionist, you can definitely live with this watch.

Can someone measure the thickness of this Clean Pepsi?

I'm wondering with this Submariner case, if we also have Submariner case back too. As we know, the GMT has a slimmer profile, the Sub having a thicker case back for its' 300m thing. Both watches wear different on the wrist as the GMT is not as tall, it wears flatter than a Sub..

My calliper battery is flat but this watch is and wears thinner to a sub. Also it does not have the deeper sub caseback, it has the correct slimmer profile gmt caseback!

gen Sub case is 12.5mm thick and gen Pepsi is 12mm thick so I guess this falls in line with the Sub dimensions some more

Ah OK.. the GMT actually has a thicker case than the Sub due to the extra depth of the movement and it's 24hr complication, however the caseback of the Sub is deeper than the GMT making the SUB sit taller on the wrist and th GMT flatter. So I guess we really need to get the case backs looked at. Why? Because these things are important.. :idontno:

Good evening Members, I leave you my opinion, I wore a few hours the 126710 BLRO clean arrived today.

Generally I do not look at the hands, crowns, bezels, reahut etc .. etc .. in a maniacal way and with the millimeter. Having said that, however, I am very attentive to the shape of the case and in this Clean GMT we could actually do better. But I must admit that when I opened the package I had a pleasant surprise, the case is not as slim as the gen but it is also not squat like an Arf oyster case, let's say it is a good middle ground pleasant on the wrist.

Overall it is a beautiful watch, brilliant insert and very close to Mark3 in color (especially the red part) beautiful crystal, dial for me wonderful, Dw is thicker than I remembered but it is passable, nice bracelet but it must be lubricated because it is dry, the VR movement is a guarantee.

For me, his grade is 8/10.

On the wrist it is a marvel and I am happy to have purchased it, if you are looking for a watch that does not show the defects of a clone in the photo then you will have to buy a gmt GMF V3 jubilee for the case, a noob bezel to insert Clean insert, a crystal Gen and a DW gen. For me it is not worth the money, but this depends a lot on the demands that each of us has for our watch.

Good continuation to all

Thanks for clarifying about the bezel lip. It turned out that there is little on earth that I could care less about a watch of this small size. Enjoy your watch and don't run through life with a compass, magnifying glass and measuring tape ..... it makes a lot easier for you and protects you from a heart attack.

My manual calliper reads 11.8mm thick on mine but it does now have a gen crystal and 2.7 gasket. CF gasket was 2.8.
Here is a pic showing the stated correct thin profile back.
