Congrats on an excellent acquisition. Don't worry about the ll....it's just that Rolex sometimes use different printers to get their dial work done.

Great watch. You can also change the bezel insert and make it look different. I've got the Coke on mine and love it. Congrats.

Well done! I have a GMT-ll (Coke) as well, instead of a GMT-II, but my Pepsi is a GMT-II.

Great Watch!

GMT IIs may be discontinued, but they are still for sale all over the place. I wonder if the prices dealers are asking will hold through these economic rough waters . . . ?

You have a beautiful collection.
