I know its a long shot, but I would like to see one of these babies in real life rather than from a full page pullout

Oooo wow, that's really one solid GMT Paul. Thanks! Yeah, it looks much better in life than the dinky paper

Yellow gold GMTII is my grail.

MikeJaye · 4 April 2010, 01:20 AM

Here is a pic of the one I used to own...gone but not forgotten :(

sea-dweller · 4 April 2010, 01:31 AM

Just beautiful !

Sometimes a "grail" watch is better in your imagination when you still want it. After owning a hyper expensive watch like this for a while, it becomes just another watch.

Mine, too, is sold and gone. Another deposed "grail" bites the dust.

Geez..... that's a fantastic looking watch. I like the gold rehaut.... rolexrolexrolex it whispers quietly.

Interesting comment about the imagination. I've always considered the gold GMT with the green dial as a "grail" piece. But, I was in an AD that had one and when I slipped it on, I was hugely disappointed. There was nothing about it that I liked on me! Funny how that works. I still like the pics of it but no longer a grail, "just another watch."

That was a Beauty Larry... I can not wait to put my hands on one of those again... I just can not find the right deal...I sold it at a very low price and can not replace it now

JUSTROLEXES · 4 April 2010, 03:10 AM

Oh well i kept the pictures

...like if that helps

chrislkb · 4 April 2010, 04:22 PM

Thanks guys for the insights, will need to try it on one day in the local ADs to judge =)

Joey_V · 4 April 2010, 04:57 PM

I love the all gold GMTIIC. I am really debating whether I should forego the SS version and wait for an all gold to pop up.

One of my grails for sure.

Here's a picture I took of one in a store in Hong Kong. Still wrapped up in plastic

I am not much into modern Rolex but I have to admit a friend of mine let me borrow his for a week and it looked and felt very nice.

dalip · 5 April 2010, 07:10 PM

they certainly look good....I guess if you're going to go all gold then this is certainly the one in Yellow...but I just can't get my head around it..I still think I'd go the All White Gold Sub (blue).....feels fantastic on..and I like it's subtlety....

[may I just add that the All Gold GMT2c is freeking stunning.....love the pics!]

carlspackler · 5 April 2010, 07:57 PM

chrislkb · 7 April 2010, 01:49 AM
