There's nothing like a Rolex!!!
So I bought myself a brand new Rolex GMTIIC one day before the big price jump and saved myself 700 dollars.
That was five days ago...or so. I started timing it the first day. From then until now it has lost a total of .5 seconds...total!!! I am amazed at how accurate it is. There's nothing like a Rolex! |

Congrats, Excellent Decision.
I would check again though after about a month. I understand once the watch has been worn a bit longer you can get a better idea as to exactly how accurate it is exactly.

The only way to make the GMTc any better is to add Pepsi/Coke... until then you have the greatest modern GMT... enjoy...

My GMT IIc is incredibly accurate as well! Some days it seems like it's spot on +/- 0 in 24 hours.
