Good for you Robb! The GMT is one watch that I'll never sell. In fact, I'd like to get another with red/ black insert to go with my jubilee bracelet.
Welcome back to the 4 hand club.

Robb,
You'll be amazed how much the insert changes the overall look. Problem is you want to change them all the time. :dummy That's why I'm looking for another.

EV,
Keep searching, you'll find one. It's well worth it.

Yes, me too - except I am looking for a all black bezel. Correct me if I am wrong - reading posts from UK - you can just wander in to any AD and buy one????

for any replies.

Not sure about the different rules around the world but it took a trip to Munich, Germany by my wife for me to get another insert without swapping the original.

Congratulations, Robb!

I am glad you got a new GMT II. No wonder you regretted selling the other one! It is such a nice classic Rolex!

How's the timekeeping?

Shouldn't this thread be combined with Yachtmaster's "I've lost my mind but I don't care"?

Congrats on the watch, Robb.
