New GMT-Master II

Or a blue datewheel would look awesome

I don't know, guys... I still like blue/red bezel more. Black/blue looks kinda cold...

Actually looks pretty damn good for a V1.
Of course they HAD TO screw something up...

"GMT MASTER II" should be in blue...

Unfortunately not, ALL dial printing, including GMT MASTER II on the gen dial is in WHITE.

I want this watch! My next 'off the shelf' purchase is either this or the Black Bay, whichever comes out first (I'll obviously end up getting both!).

It'll be interesting to see how long it takes to get a rep of this up to the quality of the current GMT IIc, as the changes required seem pretty minor:

1) All white text on the dial
2) Change of colour of the GMT hand
3) Change of colour to half the bezel

I would have thought 1 and 2 are printed, so is that much more than a colour match and an ink order?

3) is probably a bit more involved but they've done 'fantasy' Pepsi bezels seemingly without too much drama, so again, should be a colour match...

I'm hoping a couple more months should see an acceptable "V1" from the current top dogs.

There's already a rep of it Alex, it was linked twice in the first page.

Understood, but it is not even up to my pretty low standards! I'd need at least the 3 things my untrained eye noticed which I mentioned above covered off before I cough up. The 'best' GMTIIc out at the moment is more than acceptable to me, get the dial text white, paint that had properly and get a nice ceramic bezel on it and I'm sold!

Never cared for the GMT2 until this version came out. I really like the black/blue combo on the bezel. As Alex mentioned, if they come out with an acceptable rep I might need to add to the collection.

I'm about to put a gen bezel assembly on a GMT IIC. Which model is best to get. I know BPs version but nothing more than that. Also, what color should the GMT hand be, green or red? Thanks...

Blue

What I meant by that, is IMHO it would look good if "GMT MASTER II" was printed in blue...

Yup, shame Rolex never carried over the blue onto the new dial.

Yeah, I SAID THAT already ;-)
