Patrick: There should be GMT II's around Pa. Have you tried other AD's in your area?

Wow, 3 months is a long waiting time

But it sure is worth it, so hang in there!

My AD actually had the new GMT IIc in the window display, and I tried the GMT IIc on, but I couldn't afford both the SS Daytona and the GMT IIc.

However, he did promise me 10 % discount on the GMT IIc when I decide to buy it!

Bo: what i'm saying to Patrick is I live in Pa. too, and there are lots of AD's around Philadelphia and Pittsburgh as well as south central pa. where i live where there should be some stainless steel GMT-II Master, ceramic bezel rolexes around. Which brings me to the 'rest' of the new GMT II Master, ceramic bezel 'story.' There seem to be plenty around both from AD's and on the secondary market. I've seen these babies on other forums and on ebay listed for as high as $7,000. U.S. I have NOT seen anyone buying at those prices though. My feeling is that the watch is hot, hot hot right now, but also plentiful in supply on a national basis, so the answer appears to be(however very unsatisfactiory) patient and just buy MSRP. Having said that.....I want my GMT!

You'll regret it. This "over extension" will pass my son.

Dazzling watch but why wait? Just pick out about five ADs. You should find the GMTc in at least two of them..Not rare at all any more. Can even be had at a slight discount at some venues..A great choice. Best looking stainless watch ever!
