I AM "Batman!"
Thanks to a TRF forum member meet my new Grail…the Rolex GMT Master II aka BLNR aka the Batman! After having the BLNR in hand and on my wrist the Grail chills went up my spine. I LOVE this watch! This is by far my favorite Rolex and not because I own one…but the watch is so versatile, with jeans or a suit it looks great! When I strap this on I feel like a "Superhero!" Enjoy the pics…headed to the "Batcave!"

Some nice pics Gary!
 Don't much care for the 'Batman' reference, but certainly agree it's great looking/versatile watch. Enjoy!

Congratulations on a great new buy. Great pix...and I agree. Most superhero-ish watch I own. Feels great having this thing on. Mine says hi!

Great watch, congrats. The most desirable among the current Rolex sport models imho.
I'd rather call it the Pan-Am now though, because it is directly related to its history and the dark blue insert color matches the company logo colour too, and also because I previously got scolded for using such a childish nick-name as Batman....

Just a thought...if Steve McQueen were alive right now, he would be drinking and womanizing with this thing on his wrist.
Sometimes, when in a pinch, I ask myself, WWSM do? Oh yeah, he would have his cool GMT2c BLNR on so he wouldn't be in this situation. Yes, that is exactly how cool this watch is, in case anyone was wondering. |

Technically speaking.
Doesn't Batman say, "I am Batman." With a cool, raspy voice. Rather than, "I AM the Batman." As if their is more than one Batman? Congrats an awesome, awesome piece!

Nice Watch. :-)
Batman is childish? Adult isn't what I think of when I think of the Hulk and Smurf.
