Ss Gmt Master Ii
JUST BOUGHT NEW STYLE MASTER 2 FROM MY LOCAL AD.I'M ONE OF THE FIRST IN S.E.TEXAS TO GET THE SS MODEL...AT LEAST THE FIRST ONE IN OUR AREA.I FEEL BLESSED.I HAVE PICTURES, BUT DON'T KNOW HOW TO POST THEM YET.
THOUGHT I WOULD LET YOU KNOW THEY'RE ARRIVING AT THE DEALERS SLOWLY BUT SURELY! THE NEWLY ENGINEERED CLASP IS USER FRIENDLY W/LOTS OF DETAILING. THE WATCH IS HEAVIER THAN THE PREVIOUS MODEL BUT FEELS BETTER ON THE WRIST. AN EXTENSION LINK HAS BEEN ADDED TO ALLOW FOR SEASONAL EXPANSION & CONTRACTION. THE CERAMIC BEZEL HAS SHARP CLARITY AND MOVES SMOOTHLY THROUGH EACH POSITION. YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE YOUR GLASSES ON TO READ THE TIME AND THE 24 HOUR HAND, IN ROLEX GREEN, IS A CLEVER ADDITION. |

Congratulations Michael, sounds as though you are another happy Rolex customer. I've had to resort to e-bay to get my fix of photographs of this new watch, but I will not be paying $2k over retail as some sellers there seem to feel.
I was very interested to hear you say the watch feels heavier, but better. Do you mean more balanced, or more stable ???, please advise. |

Feel
Well,the watch feels more balanced I'm guessing because of the heavier band & clasp.By the way the new buckle is very impressive with its spring loaded latch and its extension link,& just wait until you see the finish on the folding link.My a.d. gave me one of the new polishing cloths with the ROLEXROLEXROLEX printing on it,so I layed the watch on it & took some pictures just to have some fun.

Polishing Cloth
The new polishing cloth being given to the dealers is white in color with ROLEXROLEXROLEX written all over it & made of a finer close knit material simular to silk,works nicely but for safety's sake I only use a high grade of microfiber to polish my watches & cars,etc.
