GMT Master II 116710BLNR Did I do good?
I'm still relatively new to the Rolex game, but after picking up a 14060 Sub this year, I was hooked. I wanted to buy a piece that would last me a lifetime and I also wanted to shrink the collection down to two or three watches.
I went the AD route because it seems that these are holding their value pretty well and the secondary market prices are even more than MSRP sometimes. Overall I'm damn excited to finally have this GMT. I've been drooling over it for a good two years now. Anybody else have one as their daily, one-and-only watch? Just wanted get some feedback from owners that have had theirs for a while.

One of the best SS sport watches currently available from Rolex. An ideal choice for a one and only watch. Congrats!

Nice pick up! Cant wait to get this piece myself. Was considering a Date Just II but once I seen this my mind was changed.
I am most likely just going to get one through an AD as well since prices are so close. I got the wifes approval so I am good to go haha |

Thanks everyone! Like most people, the only thing I'm still getting used to is the PCLs. Other than that this thing is perfect :)

Great choice. The GMT II is a comfortable watch; you'll wear it all the time, as intended. Ability to track a second time zone also hugely useful.

Great choice and a stunning watch, and it looks to be a perfect fit on your wrist. Congratulations!
I'm really torn between the BLNR or a black-dial Daytona for my next ... whenever that will be. |

The blnr is probably the only rolex where buying from the AD is the same as a TD. The price is almost a wash.

Really like the look of the blue/black dial! I have the gold/stainless model, but the blue/black is growing on me.
