I would have to agree. I'm not usually that into gold but there is something about the TT GMT II.

Its a toss up between the new S/S GMT II or a white face S/S Daytona.

Probably the daytona shades it.. Just..

In theory, yes!

But it depends on your AD and your negotiation skills!

I would say a 10 - 15 % discount is plausible.

I don't think so. I bought a new one from an AD a couple of weeks ago with the Credit Card guarantee and the new bracelet clasp. It also as the ROLEXROLEXROLEX script in the interior ring.


If I were to buy one tomorrow I'd buy a white faced Explorer II.

I'm with roadcarver - the SS version of the GMT II.

I just cannot do gold on my watches.
