Will there ever be a GMT III

I understand the history of the GMT/GMT II regarding new features etc but do you guys think that there will ever be a GMT III?

Anything's possible! I don't necessarily see what it would do differently, but who ever knows?

I think it would be a ways down the road now. The big difference between the MASTER and MASTER II has more to do with the movement than exterior features.

I don't think they were asking themselves if there was going to be a GMT II when they created the original...So I think there will be a GMT III.
In what form...who knows!!!

You guys may not agree but... with the amount and nature of the recent changes to the GMT, especially with the discontinuation of the older style, I'm surprised they didn't call this new version a GMT III.

I don't think there will. By the time Rolex come to update the model, the British government will have given so much of our heritage away it will be called the UTC Master.

i am not sure about the GMT III but i believe that if one day they are going to release a model called GMT III it's going to be something like dress watch and GMT II is going to stand as tool watch. This means that the GMT III is going to be full gold with diamonds etc
