My First Rolex - GMT II

My wife just got home last night from a conference and had picked up my grad school graduation present while on the east coast, a Rolex GMT II. I love this watch and wanted to share a photo.

Congratulations!
That is a classic that will never be out of style.
I'm hoping that will be my next model.

Congratulations on the grad school graduation.

How did you decide between the all black bezel vs the blue/black Bezel?
