Replica Rolex watches in high demand
The name of the replica Rolex GMT-Master II series is derived from Greenwich Mean Time (GMT); its most distinctive features are the dual-colored bezel—which visually divides day and night—and the dual time zone function. The series’ most famous and historic color scheme—the red-and-blue bezel—was discontinued in 2026, affecting both the stainless steel and 18K white gold “meteorite dial” versions. A GMT-Master lineup without the red-and-blue bezel inevitably faces criticism for lacking its “soul.” However, the brand had long prepared for this, introducing various new color schemes in recent years to mitigate the impact of the discontinuation. Below is a review of the currently available Rolex GMT-Master II models.
With the red-and-blue bezel discontinued, the model generating the most buzz—and the most likely successor in terms of popularity—is the “Sprite” bezel version launched in 2022. Green holds a pivotal place as Rolex’s signature color. Across the replica Rolex product line, green-dominant models—such as the “Green Submariner” (Hulk/Starbucks), the “Green Gold Daytona,” and even the green-dial Oyster Perpetual—enjoy immense popularity.
Beyond its green accents, the “Sprite” features a unique design element: the crown is positioned at the 9 o’clock mark, making it a “left-handed” watch. As the first “left-handed” model in the GMT-Master series—and indeed in the modern Rolex lineup—it has naturally attracted significant attention.
Following the initial launch featuring an Oystersteel case, an 18K white gold version of the “Sprite” was added in 2026. This model features a dark green dial, which further distinguishes it from the Oystersteel version and serves as the quickest, most intuitive way to identify the precious metal model from the front.
The “Root Beer” bezel is the rarest color scheme among the currently available GMT-Master II models; the black-and-brown bezel earned this nickname due to its resemblance to root beer soda. Its scarcity stems from the fact that the entire “Root Beer” lineup is crafted from precious metals (18K gold or two-tone gold/steel), with no Oystersteel version available. The currently available “Root Beer” bezel model was launched in 2018; its warm metallic tones pay homage to vintage watch designs from the 1970s. Internationally, this color scheme is also known as “Root Beer.”
Although the red-and-blue bezel model has been removed from the current product lineup, this does not mean it is gone for good. As the most iconic and influential color scheme of the fake Rolex GMT-Master II series, it may well make a comeback in a fresh new form one day.
