Congrats! Looks great. The blue/black combo caught my eye, too.

Great choice. Truly wonderful.

Walked into a jewelry store this weekend. Owner's kid says..."What's that on your wrist?! Is that the new GMT?".

"Yessir!"

I've got a big soft spot for blue. The blue 24h hand looks amazing on this watch. Welcome to the forum, and big congrats! Great first purchase!

Thanks to many inputs and comments from the forum. After waiting for nearly 3 weeks, today I was informed by the local AD that they have the GMT II BLNR ready in stock. So I managed to rushed out to the local AD (fearing that somebody may have taken the watch first berore me although the sales person already reserved it for me...) and finally get myself the GMT II BLNR yeay....!!!

I can tell you that it is an amazing piece of workmanship from rolex! The ceramic black and blue coloured bezel is amazing. Not only because of the advanced technology rolex has that puts 2 different colours together on the ceramic (cerachrom) seamlessly, but also the effect of the diamond coating on the bezel makes the black coloured part of the bezel sometimes looks like dark silver/grey (depending on the reflection of the lights).

I am very happy with the watch. So once again thank you so much TRF and all your wonderful insights! Here are some pics: (sorry for the blured pic...)
