I just made it right now with my own time, effort, and sources. I did some research and collated some data from dealers QCs. Stuff like this doesn't "appear" out of nowhere.
bro nice work!
honestly if we can get some other examples that confirm this is consistently bad I think it's worth putting it out there to warn others and hopefully to get the factories to fix this. this is not subtle nit picking.
I love my other reps despite whatever other minor "flaws" they might have. but this is

Simply sell your Clean Pepsi if it bothers you. And you can wait for a better GMT to come (which probably will never).bro nice work!

I'm not starting a witch hunt on a illegal replica factory for some thinner printing lol.
Quality control and supply chain issues, switching vendors, happens all the time for illegal replicas.
You can inform people about the QC issue, it's up to others to decide if they can accept the thinner printing or not. Noone is forcing anyone to buy these replica watches.

Won't compare the 116710 because I have limited experience with that modelInteresting..
just for reference. Here is my Clean V3 12670BLNR (left) against Gen 116710BLNR and I cannot see any difference in the dial printing (if any, the Gen is thinner?)
And here my two Clean V3 Pepsi and Batman. Both good printing, to my eyes.
But the font for the ROLEX is quite subtle, which is why I said it's overblown - it's only really obvious in bright sunlight or when you have gen next to it.
Best to look at the "O" in "ROLEX" and compare the font thickness, and it becomes slightly more obvious.
Well lucky you these two look perfect. I will buy another watch with good print quality brcause gen will not be easy to find. Thanks for a good conversation about this issue.Interesting..

I forgot to say, this is still v1/v2 Clean, showing that the original batches have proper font printing. But compare these to the recent QC or your own Clean, look at the "O", and you might see how it's slightly thinner. Cheers. Now that I've seen this I can't unnotice it on the v3 Pepsis.Won't compare the 116710 because I have limited experience with that model

It’s the same dial between 116710 and 126710, apart from the crown between „swiss“ and „made“ on the 12.
Got me curious. Gen sub, CF Pepsi v3s, and CF BW with deep crystal. I noticed the font on the Pepsi is slightly thinner, but it’s not alarming/glaring at you like OP said. Wish I installed deep crystal though, it’s much better imo.

Though I personally like bolder printing, I wouldn't be surprised if there are small variants in print even in gen dials over time. Nothing to worry about.
Really, some of you guys seem to be looking through a loupe every single time you look at your watch
