I was swimming in our pool yesterday even though I know that might not be something I’m supposed to do with such a delicate instrument like my GMT. Anyhow I looked down and noticed my GMT had lost the whole face, hands and all. I was so devastated. I love that thing and it’s not like these sports models are easy to replace right now.
Fortunately, through some sort of Rolex induced miracle it all reappeared as soon as I came out of the water. My lesson was learned though! GMT’s are for the air, subs are for the water!

A rare stone dial option - a virtual unicorn in collector circles

Wow! And I only paid retail plus tax. Got a bottle of water and a Rolex magazine out of the deal too
