Incoming GMT II - GRNR

Well, so much for my consolidation plan, lol! My AD reached out with a GRNR, and I couldn’t pass it up. The GRNR feels like a more versatile piece compared to the colorful BLRO that's still in my collection or the BLNR I recently traded. The black and grey tones make it a bit more neutral than the others.

Overall, I’m happy with the pickup and glad I was able to snag this one!

What a cracking watch. It's understated and versatile like you say.

Congrats

How long were you waiting for before the call.

Congrats! I added it recently as well. It’s been my most frequently worn watch since I’ve gotten it.

Great decision to add! Especially after the purge, no way better than to add one to make you feel less guilty!

You got the jubilee too. Rolex’s most comfortable bracelet by far.

Yes, the lower bezel seems to appear lighter in sunlight.
