Didn’t like it at first but I’m warming up to it.

KBM · 29 March 2019, 12:46 PM

I love it. Somehow the GMT comp and meteorite dial just clicked very well together.

Bladeshot · 29 March 2019, 01:48 PM

I like it. I’ve got a silver dial AP and it’s kind of hard to read for my 50 year old eyes. Still, I’m keeping the AP! So the meteor GMT is not out of the question. We shall see...

Strange and a little contrived

Kliminator · 29 March 2019, 02:40 PM

I prefer the black SS or blue WG dial

Rocket_Man · 29 March 2019, 02:53 PM

After seeing a meteorite dial in the metal it is just spectacular. 3 dimensional, it moves when you look at it from different angles. I'd love to have a watch with a meteorite dial. But these are normally PM watches and out of my budget. I think that GMT is $46K.

jonnyz1245 · 29 March 2019, 02:54 PM

I think it is incredible but will hold onto my blue dial.

ppalasthira · 29 March 2019, 02:54 PM

I like it.

Uppersouth · 29 March 2019, 02:57 PM

I’m a fan of the blue dial, but the whitish meteorite dial is really exotic on the GMT. I think Rolex has a winner in this watch.

$38k and change. It’s $2k more than the WG version. For the $2k I’d prob pull the trigger if I were in the market for a wg gmt

Placed an order already. So it says enough. As of my humble experience meteorite dials are much much better when seen alive. So I did not hesitate at all, this whitish mixture of colours grabbed my wallet in a second.

SkyJuice · 29 March 2019, 07:44 PM

It looks nice but the price tag is beyond my pay grade at this time.

dreyep · 29 March 2019, 07:54 PM

I don't like any watch whose nickname is the Stonewash

1William · 29 March 2019, 08:45 PM

Not for me.

Patton250 · 29 March 2019, 08:48 PM

Actually I really like it. Very cool

MCO1 · 29 March 2019, 10:39 PM

Its kind of cool....I like the blue dial one better.

watchwatcher · 29 March 2019, 11:45 PM

I like it...a lot.

It's in the mix with a few others for a possible add or flip down the road.

GoingPlaces · 29 March 2019, 11:48 PM

I like it, but I've always favored meteorite dials. Legibility is a concern for me.

DonBateman · 30 March 2019, 12:03 AM

Of all the GMT options, that would be my last pick.

borrowed pic

I really like Meteorite dials like the one pictured with lots of cool striations in it.

Apheaven · 30 March 2019, 01:35 AM

You could not pay me to wear that. It is wrong on so many levels. Prior to release, I would expect to see something like this on 47th street with the other Micky mouse ‘concept’ frankenwatches. I can’t even look at it...so wrong.

However I get this...they need to remove the junior associate in the watch development department at Rolex. BLNR with jubilee....really? That’s the best you could come up with? Pathetic.

I love natural materials, so yes I like the watch.

LuminousMaximus · 30 March 2019, 01:56 AM

I'm old fashioned... I like the black dial, but have never been a fan of the Red white and Blue for any watch.

I came into ROLEX after the whole 5 digit Pepsi thing.

But, it is truly a spectacular GMT, and I do like it better on your wrist than mine...

his Retro-grouch has a couple watches that don’t fit that mold.

And it's also basically a modern take on the Pan-AM GMT, which is a pretty retro inspiration.

At first I was thinking that I'd prefer a straight white dial, but as I see more pics of the actual watch (not renders) I'm starting to like the cool shimmery-ness of the dial. I don't think I'd personally be buying a Rolex with a watch budget in the 30s, but I can see the appeal.

SamP · 31 March 2019, 12:22 AM

The Widmanstatten pattern’s are massive. Not to my liking at all.
The meteorite dial or yore are so much finer and beautiful.
