16710 faded pepsi insert under different lighting
I've been captivated by this faded pepsi insert; long ago acquired but recently fitted on my GMT.
In daylight, the colors are almost purple and rosé; under LED royal blue and peach... speckle? Also, gotta love the serif!! Please share your salmon-colored inserts! |

Yes. Some inserts can be dynamic. That's part of the allure of aluminum faded inserts.

Maybe Rolex tried to achieve that vintage look with the off red and purplish ceramic insert on the new Pepsi .
If they could get the blue/black insert crisp coloured ,I dont believe they couldnt get the red/blue right as well. |

I wish the blue part on a 16710 insert would fade more even to the red as the 1675-inserts did. I honestly like light blue more than pink...

Unfortunately mine is still bright red, but this is something the newer models can never emulate!
