Need some GMT advice..

[120Rolex]

Hi Rolexers,

After some consideration, I think I'll be making the GMT my next purchase. I've surfed a lot of sites and I'm just a bit confused.

What are the vintages / advantages of the coloured bezels (coke, rb, pepsi)?, is there a particular model that stands out?

Also, did this watch ever come in black or is this bogus?

Would love to also hear about general opinions form owners..

Thanks so much,

J

1) Do not do business with Time and Gems... see posting about nightmare a TRF member is having with them now...

2) Time and Gems seems to specialize in aftermarket modifications to rolex watches, most of them very tacky. The GMT NEVER came in black.

3) Here... educate yourself on the history and model varients of the Rolex GMT with this great site:
