Parnis Rolex GMT-Master II Pepsi Homage Watch Review

Parnis Blue Red GMT

It seems like every Rolex watch has a nickname, especially like GMT-Master II and Submariner, for example, Submariner 116610LV is Green Hulk, GMT-Master II blue/black bezel with Oyster bracelet is Batman, GMT-Master II blue/black bezel with Jubilee bracelet is Batgirl, the newest GMT-Master II with black/green bezel is Sprite, while this Parnis watch, which is a homage of GMT-Master II blue/red bezel, is known as Pepsi GMT. Many people think that such watches that just totally copy the designs of Swiss watches are replicas, but they indeed have a brand name and offer watch fans a much cheaper option. This Parnis GMT-Master Pepsi homage watch has a great outlook, but it is only sold at less than $100, I think many of you guys will consider to buy one.

Parnis GMT-Master Homage

There are too many homage watches made in China, some are top quality and worth buying, in future, I want to wrist articles about the lists of top best homage watches on my blog, for example, the top five Submariner homage, top five IWC Pilot watch homage, they will be good guides for you who are really interested in Chinese homage watches.

Parnis Pepsi Rolex Homage

The Parnis watch is made with 316L stainless steel, it has a brushed case that is measured to be 40mm in diameter and 13mm in thickness. The side of the case and crown guards are polished, the crown is screwed into and you need to unlock before pulling it out to adjust time and date. The bezel has a blue/red aluminium insert, it is not ceramic made, a homage watch with ceramic bezel can not be sold at such a low price. The flutes on the edge of the bezel are well manufactured, they are smoothly processed, I do not feel scratches when touching them with fingers.

Parnis Pepsi Crown

The dial is black with “PARNIS” in white printing and “GMT” in red, the GMT hand has a red stem and arrow-shaped tip with white lume material being filled, the GMT hand can be adjusted through the crown, it has a real GMT function that can indicate the time of the second time zone on the bezel. The date window is a copy design of the cyclop of the Rolex. The finish of the hour hand and minute hand is good but still has room to improve, because you will find metal burr on the edge by checking with a magnifier.

Parnis Pepsi Case Back

The engine behind the solid screw-down case back is a Mingzhu DG5833 automatic movement, which beats 21,600 times per hour and has stop-seconds feature. Mingzhu movements were widely used by cheap replica watches about ten years ago, now they become the ideal choices of many Chinese brands that make cheap homage watches.
