If you don’t know, the Rolex Batman is the blue and black Rolex GMT-Master II model, which gets its nickname from being the same color as the Dark Knight comic book character. On the other hand, the Rolex Coke is the GMT-Master II model with a black and red bezel. Both are loved by replica Rolex collectors worldwide and offer a different take on the collection’s classic split-color design.
Now, when it comes to comparing these two models, things can get a little tricky. The Rolex Batman GMT-Master II – number 126710BLNR – remains Rolex’s most popular watch.   126710BLNR – is still in production today. The Coca-Cola GMT-Master, however, was produced from 1989 to 2007. So, to put their head to head, we will compare the new Rolex Batman GMT-Master II with the latest iteration of the Rolex Coke GMT-Master II, the reference 16710.
So what are the defining characteristics of the modern Rolex Batman GMT-Master II model, the 126710BLNR? There are two main points. First is the blue and black Cerachrom (also known as ceramic) bezel with engraved numerals and indexes. The combination of blue and black is still considered relatively new and noteworthy among collectors, especially with the durable ceramic upgrade we see in the modern generation of the GMT-Master II collection. The Batman bezel is also a first, marking the first time Rolex has produced a two-tone ceramic bezel.
Then there’s the strap. 2019 sees fake Rolex launch an all-stainless steel version of the Batman GMT with a formal, elegant Jubilee strap. Before that, it was only available on the sportier three-piece bracelet Oyster strap. While die-hard Rolex fans were a bit disappointed that they didn’t opt for the original Oyster strap, they were finally vindicated with the return of the Oyster strap Batman in 2021. Accompanied by the new Cal. 3285 movement, this beautiful upgrade makes this watch stand out from the rest.
Although the Rolex Coke GMT is no longer in production, it does have an illustrious history of nearly 25 years. In addition to the classic red and blue (Pepsi) and all-black bezel, the red and black “Coke” insert is named for its resemblance to the iconic soda maker’s bottle.
The GMT-Master II Coke is an awe-inspiring and striking replica watch whose iconic red and black bezel first appeared on the inaugural GMT-Master II Reference 16760 in the 1980s, making it a highly collectible icon to this day. But what exactly makes this model different from the latest and greatest Batman? Well, a few things.
The Coca-Cola GMT-Master II 16710 has an aluminum bezel, just like all the other fake Rolex watches that came before the Cerachrom. It was one of the last GMT-Master II models to feature an aluminum bezel before being replaced by ceramic in this generation of the GMT-Master II, which first started appearing in 2005. It makes this black and red bezel highly collectible today. The GMT-Master II ref. 16710 also predates the era of “Super” cases and “Maxi” dials, including more significant hour markers and hands, wider lugs, and crown protection. Similar to the modern Rolex “Batman,” the Ref. 16710 is also available with either a Jubilee or Oyster strap.
The Rolex Coke Ref. 16710 features aluminum instead of Cerachrom, smaller hour markers, and a sleeker case. On the other hand, the Batman Rolex is slightly more robust, with more extensive, more modern features on the dial, more lustrous ceramic, and a more innovative style of case and bracelet.

Few things are more timeless and long-lasting than Rolex replica watches. These iconic luxury watches are one of the very few items that can be worn all day, every day, and can last a person’s entire life. Many of Rolex’s most famous designs are celebrated for their versatility and can be worn with everything from diving suits to three-piece suits. However, Rolex’s catalog is surprisingly diverse, with the iconic Swiss watchmaker producing a wide variety of models designed for specific uses and environments. As such, there are some general style tips you can follow to make sure you always have the right watch for every occasion and to ensure your Rolex looks its best.
Whether you’re dressing for a formal black-tie event or throwing on jeans and a sweatshirt for a poolside barbecue on the weekend, there’s always the perfect replica Rolex watch to suit your occasion and attire. Here are our picks for some of the Rolex models that work best with different types of outfits, from formal suits to athleisure, and everything in between.
Technically speaking, the Rolex Cellini is the brand’s only line of exclusive dress watches. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t wear other fake Rolex models for formal occasions.
Many of Rolex’s most iconic designs can be worn for almost any occasion, including formal occasions. Furthermore, while traditional formal wear rules call for rather restrained and conservative watch designs, you can always go in the exact opposite direction and wear bold statement pieces in your formal wear.

While you’ve seen as many Rolex watches as we have, and studied them as long as we have, you begin to recognize patterns. It’s hardly a shock, for example, when Rolex introduces new material options into a collection, or when the brand releases a new batch of references to accommodate a new generation of movements. However, what is most surprising is often what is not currently available. Many of Rolex’s core models have been around for decades, and in that time they’ve changed in many different ways. With that in mind, even after all these years, there are still some Rolex watches that surprisingly don’t exist (yet).  
Moving on to the Submariner line, we can venture to say that the one notable missing element in the collection is the choice of rubber strap – or in replica Rolex terms, the Oysterflex strap. Those familiar with Rolex watches will undoubtedly know that in its six-decade history, the Submariner has only ever come with the ubiquitous three-link metal Oyster strap, while the new rubber Oyster strap first appeared on the Yacht Prestige in 2015.
But what’s more “dive watch style” than a rubber strap? Look at other brands like Omega, Audemars Piguet, Breitling, and Panerai and you’ll soon find a large selection of rubber straps in their dive watch line-ups – because it makes sense. However, Oysterflex straps are only available in the Yacht-Master, Daytona, and Sky-Dweller collections, and are exclusive to solid gold models. So perhaps a gold Submariner with an Oysterflex strap will appear in the near future?
However, what is noticeably missing is the two-tone green and black Cerachrom bezel on the GMT-Master II. We know Rolex can make green ceramic bezels for the “Hulk” Submariner Ref. 116610LV and the “Kermit” Submariner model. 126610LV. In addition, black ceramic bezels are currently standard in the Rolex replica sports watch catalog. So, why not combine these two colors into one great pilot’s watch? Perhaps a GMT-Master II “Green Lantern” to follow in the footsteps of Rolex’s “Hulk” and “Batman”.
It’s been said many times before, but the Cellini line is clearly Rolex’s undoing. This line of non-Oyster Rolex watches just doesn’t catch the eye of watch lovers like the brand’s Oyster Perpetual watches, even though it is beautiful and has been recently redesigned. The moon phase complication is something we haven’t seen since the 1950s, so it’s an exciting development that will be a great start to a future line of more complex mechanical dress watches.

What are Rolex Tiffany dials? In short, they are just plain Rolex dials bearing the Tiffany & Co. name. However, this short explanation doesn’t do justice to the importance of these co-branded dials among the Rolex collecting public. While Rolex now maintains incredibly tight control over its products, co-branding was once quite common – a practice that really took off in the 1960s and lasted for over 30 years. 
Like the railroad dial, the tropical dial, or the Paul Newman dial, the “Tiffany dial” is just another tiny variation in the world of vintage Rolex collecting that has a huge impact on the value of the watch. But why are Tiffany dials so sought after and expensive, and which fake Rolex watches have Tiffany dials? Let’s take a deeper look by taking a comprehensive look at Rolex Tiffany dials.
As a well-known jewelry retailer, Tiffany & Co. has a long history of selling watches from a variety of top Swiss watchmakers, including Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, and, of course, Rolex. In fact, in 1851, Tiffany & Co. became the first store in the United States to sell Patek Philippe replica watches – a relationship that continues to this day, with select Patek Philippe timepieces still bearing the Tiffany & Co. branding on their dials.
Rolex and Tiffany, on the other hand, entered into a co-branding agreement in the late 1950s. This agreement allowed Tiffany & Co. to carry its famous name on Rolex watches’ dials sold in its boutiques. Early Tiffany Rolex dials were done by hand at Tiffany’s flagship store in New York, but eventually, other Tiffany retail stores began stamping Rolex replicas as well.
Besides, Tiffany & Co. stocked replacement dials at its service centers in case of repairs. As a result, many replacement Tiffany & Co. brand dials are stamped at its service centers or retail stores, rather than at its flagship store in New York City, as in the original example.

While the explosive growth of the vintage replica watch market has revealed many hidden gems that once went unnoticed over the past few years, some incredible timepieces remain hidden or forgotten around the world. A recent episode of PBS’s “Antiques Roadshow” was a great example of this, as an unnamed the United States Air Force veteran brought in his mint condition “Paul Newman” Rolex Daytona for appraisal.
For the luxury fake watch industry as a whole, 2020 has been a mixed year. While the Americas and Europe continued to show solid growth over the year, the combination of political unrest and the removal of favorable import tax laws in Hong Kong left a serious effect on overall industry performance. Swatch Group is a perfect example. In the company’s 2019 sales report, launched this week, net sales outside of Hong Kong grew 5 percent over the previous year. Once Hong Kong is included in the numbers, however, Swatch Group’s net sales were down 1.8 percent worldwide. While Hong Kong produced a similar drag on sales for LVMH, that didn’t stop the luxury goods conglomerate from posting record growth numbers in its 2019 earnings report.
Geneva-based De Grisogono, perhaps best known as a high-end diamond jeweler but also as a boutique watchmaker, has filed for bankruptcy this week. The statement comes amid claims that the firm, partially owned by both the state diamond mining company of Angola, has cost the Angolan government hundreds of millions of dollars because of shady dealings by Isabella dos Santos, wife of partial company owner Sindika Dokolo and daughter of former Angolan president José Eduardo dos Santos. Dos Santos, who was recently noted as the richest woman in Africa, has been accused in the “Luanda Leaks” documents of embezzling millions of dollars from the Angolan government through a complex web of state-sponsored bank loans. If the Swiss government accepts the bankruptcy claim, all 65 employees of De Grisogno stand to lose their jobs.
While some big brands have decided not to attend the Basel 2020 World Trade Show, not all the news is negative. The trend of vintage-inspired dive replica watches indicates no signs of slowing down in 2020, as Swatch Group brand Certina has searched all the way back to 1968 in its archives for the latest iteration of the DS dive watch. While the bold style is straight from the ’60s, the specifications are thoroughly modern with a 43mm case diameter, sapphire crystal, and a massive 500 meters of water resistance. It is really such a big shock.
