Every time I wear this watch it makes me smile. If I had to go to just one watch (like hell!), this would be it

So I will take the pleasure of creating a thread for the watch that is arguably as popular as the Submariner (at least on this Forum). So to all owners of GMT Masters, past and present, let's see what you got!

A couple of shots to get this thread off the ground. Sorry, no pun intended.
Some beeeautiful Batmans and Pepsis in this thread! I have been looking for a GMT Master for a while but have had a hard time decided on a ref, but this thread was helpful for sure!

Also found this super helpful buying guide: https://www.bobswatches.com/rolex-bl...ing-guide.html

"The Rolex GMT is a pilot’s watch with dual-time capabilities. It is coveted by collectors of all walks of life and boasts an impressive selection of design sets and budgets. Our ultimate Rolex GMT-Master buying guide will discuss everything related to the brand’s legendary GMT collection, including its history, price, features, options, and where you can buy it."

Great read! I think I'm gonna go with the 116710

Totally unsurprised by the amount of Batmans and Pepsis in this thread. They are such great watches and I love seeing all the fans on this website. I actually found this interesting article detailing all the different Rolex nicknames (many of which are hyper rare grails). Here it is: https://www.bobswatches.com/rolex-bl...nicknames.html

"Only the most beloved and collectible Rolex watches have ever received nicknames. And while these monikers are popularly embraced by collectors and experts all around the world, the nicknames given to our favorite Rolex watches actually aren’t official. Instead, these beloved names are simply a universally-accepted shorthand for how collectors refer to rare models, vintage favorites, or unique and colorful stylings."

Very informative read!
