Incoming on the way!!!

Super excited as I’ve finally pulled the trigger on GMT Master II 126710BLRO.

Had to go grey as it wasn’t going to happen through an AD as I don’t have the spend history and not willing to buy things I don’t want, but I’m happy with the price I’ve got it for and it’s an unworn example.

Arrives next Thursday as I have work commitments but I’ll be sure to post pics once it arrives!!

Want to enjoy this piece for a good while and will make a great pair with my Sub Date. Need to start saving to complete the trio with a Daytona at some point….

Went for the jubilee. I like the Oyster too but where I have a Sub, the jubilee was a must as I want a bit of diversity in my collection

I like it on both, but think you’ve made the right choice if you have a sub too. Looking forward to the pics

Congratulations on the 126710BLRO! Going grey is a solid choice, especially if it means getting the watch you truly want without the hassle. An unworn example is a fantastic find, too – sounds like you made a smart deal.

The BLRO will pair perfectly with your Sub Date, and I can imagine how great it’ll feel to round out the trio with a Daytona someday. Looking forward to those pics and wishing you many years of enjoyment with your new GMT!

Congratulations! Looks great! You did the right thing by going grey and not playing silly AD games and forever waiting lists. Enjoy it in good health. Cheers!
