Rolex GMT 126711 Root Beer from GMF

[roadtofreedom]

Every pic of the BP I've seen on TD sites has "plating drool" on the SEL sides as I noted a few posts above. I would like to see pics of a real one also. If it's only the 904L difference the BP would be a better choice but I stand by my earlier statement that bare SEL sides is better than drool.

Post I'm referring to:

Thanks for your response.
Frankly speaking, I think it is almost no noticeable.
And the price difference is unjustifiable.

If you think that price difference is bad, the wrapped TT GMF (all gold mid link sides) is $968.

Some good views on BP version

I'm going to pull the trigger on the BP version I think

BP SEL side coverage looks ragged to me. You can't expect quality from a $300 plated version. GMF wrapped shown below it.

Totall bullshit.
I said this many times - bigger price tag doesn’t mean better quality especially when it comes to reps.
BP version is better.
They charging more because of 904L. Brushing of both versions is the same. Steel looks the same.
BP I’ve seen had fully plated sides.

Where have you seen it other than TD stock pics? No TD pics I've seen show this. I asked for pics or a link. I'll be the first in line if it's true.

Someone I know owns it. I’ve seen it only once and it looked great.

That would be the way to go then. Any chance that person would let you take a pic, or they would send you one with a macro of the SEL sides?

This model has grown on me lately, so once I did the research I pulled the trigger this morning on BP version.

Looking forward to have it at home.
