I tried it on and i say to her very nice i want one and can you put me on the list.
She didn't say anything but i have to leave for a meeting.
i say goodbye to her and she say can you pay the bill for the watch with my collegue.
So i was suprised and thank her to let me buy the GMT.
Yep….sounds entirely plausible to me.

I have thought for a while now, that the 126710GRNR will be extremely available, the gateway drug for the GMT Master. I think most people will be able to walk in and buy these whenever they want at some point soon.

It looks too much like a Sub tbh. If I wanted a sub I'd just buy a sub.

Not knocking OPs purchase (big congrats) but I just find the watch one of the most underwhelming and lazy releases of recent memory from Rolex

You're saying this like trying to be a Submariner... It's clearly a GMT, in fact, it's even less like a Sub than the old 116710LN was.
Not many steel Submariners with a 2 tone bezel, a bright green GMT hand and polished centre links...

Someone at that store has probably been on a GMT wait list for over 2 years ;). Fantastic acquisition! Congrats!
