CF Pepsi picture leaks BLRO

[fpi87]

Excited to see if there actually is progress being made in rep Pepsi inserts. I’ve never seen a Gen Pepsi insert in person so will need Gen Pepsi owners to see how close they got when I get a chance to post pictures in few weeks.

Unconfirmed but these are claims made for the Reddit Insert, we can see how much is accurate:

• Creator has Gen MK1 insert and provided it to factory
• Claimed to be working with “best ceramic makers in China”, multiple versions were produced to get as close to MK1 as possible
• No speed bumps
• Has been tested to fit CF Pepsi
• Under UV light entire insert is red like Gen
• Claim made by creator “if CF is 75% close to Gen, we may be 90-92% closer to Gen”

Nice, I just bought one too! The comparison pics from seller looks promising for sure and the red color under UV light is definitely a step forward to GEN

Apparently, some factories were interested as well and bought few samples from this reddit seller to test it out. Maybe some factories will adapt it in the future but that's unsure.

A user over on Reddit based in China has manufactured new Pepsi ceramic bezels, I just purchased one and it shipped today. Should have it soon and I can do a comparison with CF insert side-by-side in different lighthings.

Comparison posted by the insert creator (CF left and custom right):

That's beautiful, do you mind sharing his reddit ID? I would like to get in touch with him and get one for myself. Thank you

At least in pictures, looks identical to me to the MK1 ceramic insert.

Nearly bought but I’ll wait for real world pics I think plus I haven’t currently got a Pepsi.

My only hesitation was that the numerals look a little too big on this new insert.

I don't get the Mark 1 etc, can someone explain? Did rolex release different versions of the Pepsi?

Different versions of the pepsi insert over time with slightly different colours, yes

There's currently 3 versions of the 126710BLRO insert, MK1 to mk3

Yeah there are pictures online on other forums comparing them. Here are Gen MK1, MK2, MK3 side by side
