The Rolex GMT-MASTER II reference 126710BLRO was revealed at Baselworld 2018. Representing a modern revival of the legendary Pepsi GMT-MASTER, it very quickly became incredibly sought after.
Among many outstanding features, the dial is framed by a bi-colour Cerachrom insert and is fitted with the iconic Jubilee bracelet.
The modern Pepsi utilises calibre 3285, boasting an increased power reserve of 70 hours and further-improved magnetic and shock resistance. The dial bears a new Coronet at 6 o'clock, between 'SWISS' and 'MADE', indicating the newer generation of Rolex movements.
This particular timepiece was purchased by Diwan Amiri, which is the sovereign body and administrative office of His Highness The Amir of Qatar. It was most likely gifted as a State gift.
