2023 Rolex GMT II Gold
Not sure of the reference number. I was in the boutique sourcing a leather strap for my Daytona and the Manager said I have something to show you, but it is already spoken for. A very special piece. Exquisitely crafted, bezel is subtle and some how the watch did not feel like bling to me.

They let you try on something already promised to another? |

Not a Rolex, but was looking at a Grand Seiko once. AD saw my hesitation than had the watch specialist size it for my wrist. I knew immediately I’d never buy from them! BTW… I love the looks of that GMT. |

Back in the day (2018) when watches were in display cases, we all tried on watches that were eventually sold. It’s not a big deal imo. The stickers are still on them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Bezel doesn't looks subtle. Still waiting for pics from a real owner.
But thanks OP! |

Lol, the reference number is on the tag in your second photo.
My favorite release from W&W 2023. |

I really like it, not enough Id buy it BUT I really like it.
The bezel looks much better in the flesh and with proper light.

I saw the 126713GRNR (TT version) today at the AD and it looked great on the jubilee. I just wish the bezel was all Black, if so, it would have been a purchase.

Pocked this up a few weeks ago. The new GMT seemed more subtle that the Daytona.

I've generally been a fan of the Daytona on rubber. But ... this croc has me intrigued. I asked an AD last week whether they still make croc straps for the 116518 and they do. Might just pick one up. |

Total stunner. I think maybe the slightly vintage feel turns down the flash a bit? I don’t know and I don’t care. I do know that I think it looks beautiful. Thanks for the photos. |
