Well, I heard about the new SD, so I may wait and see what it looks like first. What's next on your list?

Man am I pleased. That is the same watch as I have. I am so proud of it and it is such a beauty.

Thanks for capturing it in all of it's beauty.

I think it is a fabulous watch. The accuracy is impeccable, the looks are awesome.

TT GMT-Master II c = One rockin' watch.

In my humble opinion of course.

Nice pics.

Thanks Terry! The GMT Master II TT c is indeed a real beauty. I have not really actually timed it yet. But my ex-GMT Master II 16710 was the most accurate watch I've ever owned. And cos of that, I put my faith 200% in Rolex.

Jacky you did one hell of a good job on those pics, your setup is not at all sophisticated! as someone said it is mostly because of who's behind the camera!!!

Black velvet huh?!?!?! I gues the Macro lens helps!
Great Pics, if you ever get more on other watches please post them!

A local AD had one that I tried on last week. I normally don't wear gold but man o man that watch is amazing looking.

For sure the best TT watch since the blue Sub!

Watchboy...how did you get rid of the reflection on the saphire crystal?
This is always the hardest part to master for me.

I'd say no, it looks like the logo on my 116520 buckle, a beautiful and crisp stamping I'd guess.

Once again thank you for your kind comment guys! This is arguably the best TT after the 16613 in blue. IMO of course.

Ok to get rid of the reflection, you have to tilt the watch at certain angle. And try to clear all bright colored or white objects away from the watch. If you can get your camera at least 1 ft away from the watch too, i.e. get a macro lens at least 70mm. Also a polarized filter will help(but not 100%). Lastly.....ah.....photoshop a little.
