SS BLRO Case Back Gap

Hi Guys,

This is the first Rolex case back i've seen with a small gap ~ Only noticed this as it looks like a crud magnet.

Is this specific to the GMT Master II? You can see the gap visible at 4 o'clock.

Just looks like debris to me. Give it a good wash - will be fine!

I just the habit of rinsing my watch every morning before wearing it.
I guess I’ll never see that crud.
