	Secondary-market data shows double-digit appreciation through the 2020-2024 window, with strong liquidity (short days-to-sell) relative to the broader Rolex sports catalogue. Robb Report's 2018 launch piece and 2026 discontinuation piece bookend the retail-to-grey-market trajectory: CHF 8,800 launch retail, then years of waitlist premium, then unworn examples above $40k in the post-discontinuation week.

	The white gold [[Reference:116719BLRO\|116719BLRO]] had held the ceramic Pepsi slot for four years.

	The ~~[[Reference:~~126710BLRO~~\|126710BLRO]]~~ is the third ceramic GMT-Master II and the one that made the platform mainstream. The 2013 [[Reference:116710BLNR\|116710BLNR]] Batman had established ceramic in the GMT with a blue-and-black bezel; the 2014 [[Reference:116719BLRO\|116719BLRO]] had brought back the Pepsi but only in white gold. The 2018 steel Pepsi was the point at which the full modern configuration landed in a steel case at a four-figure retail, with waitlists to match.

	Sotheby's "Pepsi key references" editorial treats the 126710BLRO as the current-era chapter of the Pepsi lineage that runs from 6542 through to the ceramic era. Revolution framed the 2018 announcement as the headline of a three-watch launch that also included the two 126711CHNR / 126715CHNR Rootbeer variants.
