I think that GMT-II just about blows away the new one - hands down....and price-wise as well!!

Its funny how tastes can develop.When I first started looking at Rolex last year I would never have imagined wearing a watch with a red and blue bezel. Now though I cant wait to get my hands on a pepsi.....a real
 classic.......great pics by the way. (another thread "saved to favourites") to look at in the wee small hours

1. The movement is different from the SD, tracking two time zones. I thought if I was going to buy a second Rolex, it should have characteristics that make it differ from what I already have. Plus, the second time zone is very useful for me. 2. Its a sport stainless, with a great history of exploration and adventure (check the classic 1970's ads at this post: http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=6169) A 24 hour world needs a 24 hour watch. 3. I was concerned that BaselWorld would produce a revised GMT II with a commensurate price hike. My AD said this would never happen..............................I found a great discount for the last Pepsi in stock of a larger AD in Toronto, and with a looming price hike for Rolex Canada, decided to make my move. As JJ said to me in a post on the issue, Rolex prices never go down, only up...... 4. It has a colourful bezel insert that is changeable, and which in its Pepsi form, is a recognisable icon of the Rolex sport line, now discontinued................ Overall, its my preferred and most worn timepiece. Light, comfortable, with just the right sized case and dial, what can I say................ Get 'em while you still can. C |
