The GMT is not my favorite model, but I am liking this. That blue just pops in that photo. Nice timepiece. Enjoy

I am seriously contemplating this being the 2014 purchase and it's pictures like this that make it difficult to lust after others. Still need to see one with my own two eyes but my local AD didn't have one the last time I was in.

Love the blue hand!
Wonder why Rolex didn't color the GMT MASTER II in blue? My all black GMT has green hand and green GMT MASTER II script.

Thanks everyone! What I realize about the new dial after a week or so of ownership is that, the blue portion actually becomes lighter, bluer or darker depending on the lighting situation. But of course, it's all relative to an individual's color perception. When I was outside on bright sunny day and look down at my watch i was blown away by the very blue portion of the dial, it's was just gorgeous!
