I have a feeling this one will be around longer than most think.

I really do, talking to JJ, he seems happy with the two he has. He will always have the wandering eye, we all do to some extent. Though I think this one will be in his family for quite awhile.

I hope so too, actually, since I need a black ExpII brudda in arms.
I would prefer to see JJ either add a TT Daytona to his collection, rather than dump one of his current two. |

Yep I agree, and although we spared in fun over my white Exp II, I'd buy the black next time! I like white dials on DJs, but now I think Rollie sports watches are meant to have black dials.

The only white dial Rolex I'd want is the old GMT that was made for Pan Am desk jockeys. |

I don't think I've ever seen a pic of that watch. Anyone have a pic?

That's interesting looking! Bet they're really valuable, but I'd rather have a black one. Thanks John!

Atomic,
Could'nt agree with you more , I was'nt even aware that this model even existed. Between what years was that beauty manufactured? |

Sorry, John. The white face just doesn't cut it on the GMT. It's OK on the YM, but here, it washes out. And the GMT really needs the red 24 hour hand. That's what makes it distinctive.

As you can imagine, they are very rare and command a huge premium. Last time I heard one went up at auction it commanded around US$30,000. Last edited by Atomic; 10 November 2005 at 02:00 AM.. |
