How Does The Clean Factory Rolex Greenwich Coke Bezel With The Dandong 3285 Movement Measure Up?

Hello everyone, I’m CH Watch Industry, and I’m passionate about sharing knowledge on replica watches. I specialize in comparing authentic and replica pieces, conducting detailed breakdowns, and guiding enthusiasts through the world of watches. My goal is to help you navigate this hobby without losing your way. Today’s review features the Clean Factory Rolex Coke bezel model, which is equipped with the latest exclusive Dandong 3285 movement. This watch, officially known as the Rolex GMT-Master II m126710BLRO-0001 (Coke bezel), follows the Clean Factory’s earlier release of the 3186 version. This latest upgrade places a strong emphasis on the Dandong 3285 movement. You can find detailed reviews on this movement in previous CH Watch evaluations. Today, let’s dive into the color variations found in the Clean Factory Rolex Coke bezel 3285 movement version.

In 2018, Rolex introduced the GMT-Master II with a distinctive combination: the five-link Oystersteel Jubilee bracelet and the red and blue two-tone Cerachrom ceramic bezel, marking the debut of the Oystersteel “Pepsi” model. This Jubilee bracelet replaced the Oyster bracelet previously used on the GMT-Master II, distinguishing it from the platinum model. Traditionally, the Coke bezel has been available only in a platinum case with no stainless steel version. However, this year, Rolex launched the stainless steel “Pepsi” GMT-Master II (ref. 126710) with a Jubilee bracelet, setting it apart from the platinum model’s Oyster bracelet. To further differentiate the stainless steel version from the platinum one, Rolex modified the lugs, limiting the stainless steel model to the Jubilee bracelet only. The new platinum-cased “Coke” bezel GMT now features a blue dial, adding another layer of distinction. Additionally, the latest stainless steel “Pepsi” GMT-Master II also incorporates Rolex’s new 3285 movement, which increases the power reserve from 48 hours with the previous 3186 to 70 hours. A notable visual change is the small crown at the six o’clock position on the dial.

When it comes to replicas of the Rolex Coke bezel, the top contenders are currently from Clean Factory and C+ Factory. In the first generation, which featured the 3186 movement, Clean Factory took the lead in addressing the issues with the bezel splicing that N Factory had missed, while C+ later improved on these details. C+ also introduced a modified 3285 movement, although it fell short of achieving a 72-hour power reserve. Today, the latest upgraded Rolex Coke bezel from Clean Factory is equipped with the Dandong-supplied 3285 movement, which has been tested and confirmed to offer a full 72-hour power reserve. Additionally, it addresses the issue where the hour hand adjustment on the 3186 movement was reversed compared to the original. With the Dandong 3285 movement, not only is the power reserve optimized to 72 hours, but the hour and minute hands now move in sync with the original, and the crown turns forward when adjusting the date and time, staying true to the authentic Rolex design.

Before diving into the review, there’s an interesting detail to note: the Ref. 126710 released in early 2018 differs subtly from the versions released in 2019 and 2020. The earlier model features a ceramic bezel in a pink and bright blue color combination, often referred to as MK1. Later versions of the same model have a ceramic bezel in burgundy and dark blue, known as MK2. Initially, some watch enthusiasts thought this color difference was simply a result of “individual variation” in Rolex’s ceramic firing process. However, since the MK1 with pink and bright blue has not reappeared, it is now believed to be a “batch variation.”

To put it simply, the first generation MK1 coke bezel fails to achieve the rich red color that Rolex intended. The replica watch market has consistently aimed to match the newer bezel color, known as the MK2 version shown in the image below. This MK2 bezel features a more wine red hue instead of pink, while the blue appears more purple, resembling a dark blue with a purple tint. Clean Factory has undoubtedly produced the best bezel color available in the market today. It’s worth noting that Clean was specifically developed for replacement bezels, emphasizing its commitment to quality in this specialized field.

At first glance, the overall color of the outer ring appears quite appealing. The Clean Factory’s outer ring features a smoother transition between red and blue, resulting in a more natural look without any abrupt changes. Additionally, the alignment of the 18 and 6 numerals is spot on. The matte finish of the platinum scale on the outer ring is superior, showcasing a fine, neat, and uniform granularity rather than a bumpy texture.

When it comes to details, particularly the inner crown scale of the Coke bezel and the outer ring, the center of the inverted triangle design aligns perfectly with the straight line. The angle shown in the image below clearly illustrates this alignment. The Clean Factory has executed this detail exceptionally well, so there’s no need for extensive explanation—after all, a picture is worth a thousand words.

When it comes to the strap, there are options available in both three-link and five-link styles, allowing you to choose based on your personal preference. The overall polishing of the strap ensures a comfortable feel!

The side of the watch features a beautifully rounded polish, with the right side showcasing a time crown that boasts clear engravings. The watch has a solid case back design. Additionally, the movement in the Clean factory model has been upgraded to the classic 3285 movement. Unlike the previous 3186, this updated movement is not just a simple re-engraved version; it fully realizes all its functions.

The original integrated 3285 movement from Dandong boasts an impressive power reserve of up to 72 hours. It not only fixes the alignment of the hour and minute hands during date and time adjustments but also offers extended energy storage. After calibration, it ensures high stability. With these benefits, the Clean factory’s Rolex coke bezel stands out as the top version available on the market!
