Rolex automatic and durability for sport, motorcycle,mountainbiking,... ?

Hey there,

I have been interested for a long time already in buying a Rolex GMT Master II Pepsi. There are three reasons I might finally buy one:

1. Blue and Red
2. Red and Blue
3. Durability ?

I am riding my motorcycle (Daytona 675 SE), mountinbike,...
I do sport (volleyball, basketball, soccer, swimming, running,...)
On sunny days I am driving a sporty cabrio with a not so comfortable suspension that might give some hard punches to the watch (Honda S2000).
Will the automatic movement in the Rolex GMT Master II survive this for the next 20 years or more?

I currently wear a Tissot LeLocle Automatic and after 5 years I brought it to the service where they told me that one of the movement-holding-ankers was about to break. That probably happened due to riding my motorcycle or swinging a hammer too many times or I dont know. It was generally recommended to me to not wear my automatic watch when doing such activities.

Does this alao count for the Rolex GMT Master II ?

Please be honest. I know Rolex is the best and all other ones suck ;-)

Thanks in advance !
