Thanks for the link.. I've been waiting to see the blnr for a minute.. still looks like same watch with oyster fitted to me.

Yea I am super unimpressed and rather baffled by both the CF BLNR case shapes. That’s why I’m hoping someone can give me a clean breakdown on how hulky the 116710 is

I'd put money on it that:

CF is using the exact same case for all 5 of their new GMT releases

And

Rolex is using the exact same case for all 4 of their current SS GMT lineup

Folks, whenever possible, is anyone able to post some close-ups on the bezel insert of the CF Pepsi?

Curious whether the engravings are of same / similar depth as e.g. subs with CF inserts.

Thanks a hundred, mate. Looks suspiciously good, even the lugs... Is it a CF rep, really?

In either case, the engravings look pretty deep. Probably comparable with other CF bezel inserts, e.g. Submariners.

Ya thats stock as it is . And as a gen owner , this is too good for the money , hope insert engravings do not get faded soon will c.

Maybe a gen date wheel , crystal and hands and then you’ll get a top top notch.

The lip part is not major thing and in real life it is hardly noticed.

I tried VRF , ROF and noob all are not close to gen as CF is.

I am sure whomever gets it will be happy with it

Did someone notice when adjusting the dates that there are certain dates where the date wheel is not centered in the date window?

Here is a picture of the clean pepsi next to my gen. My gen has the mk3 insert, which is much darker blue than mk1 and mk2, but the clean pepsi insert color is so off that it makes my mk3 look like an mk1.

The red is brownish and not as rich as gen.

Another

Left Gen (MK3)
Right Clean

As you can see even the gen mk3 has a purple hue to it in direct sunlight. Clean blue looks like a royal blue in direct sunlight. The biggest let down is the red on clean. It looks like a pumpkin red with a brown undertone.

Finally a voice of reason. Maybe all the LOL CANT COMPARE COLOR ON YOUR MONITOR guys can stop with the nonsense now

The insert color is really off. Look how brown that red is, sheesh.
