New GMT-Master II - A Closer Look

[pelue]

Hi Folks,

after owning the new GMT for about a week now without wearing it for more than a couple of minutes I was exploring a bit more into detail of this fantastic watch.




After years and years with various GMTs (16710 and 16750) I was a little skeptical about the new approach of Rolex. But to be honest it has improved in a lot of details.






After removing hundreds of protection films from the case, bracelet and clasp I even found today two ones left on the clasp.






Overall it is a fantastic watch with no doubt in its adequate technical evolution. Time will tell if it will appeal me in the way the old GMT does.

Very nice, thanks

In my opinion, the Ceramic GMTII is the most beautiful watch Rolex has in it's collection at the moment.

Nice pictures and have fun with your new GMT
Don't be too upset about scraches in your bracelet

As I already told you: for me the best Rolex on the market at the moment!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and photos on this fantastic watch.

Were it not for getting my 16710-3186, I'd probobly get one of these watches. Not because it's better than the 16710 - it isn't. It is, in my mind a different watch altogether than the venerable Pepsi watch:



As much as I like the SS version of this watch (it really is sharp) I always step back from having another black dial/bezel, stainless steel watch with polished links in the collection.



Instead, I think I will (eventually) pick up the TT version which I really did fall in love with when I tested it:

Can anyone please tell me the exact height of the new GMT in mm? Thx

[sheldonsmith]

12mm, same as the 16710, which is accomplished by a thicker case, but flatter caseback.
