Hi. I'm back and I love my GMT Master II .........



Picked this one up a month ago. 116710, S serial. Got her overhauled at my local AD. They also polished her up. Very happy with it. What else do I need?

Yes, that is an excellent GMT-II thanks for the photo and the re-entry, not rear entry

What else do you need Brandon, well I guess just about every Rolex you haven't got

A coke bezel would be nice

Correction: Ref # is 16710. Hard to read without my loup, which I can't find.

I love it, Magnum PI all the way. I absolutely prefer the "old" style GMT to the new ceramic, looks great. Congrats Brandon and welcome back. By the way, I have found that the best relief from screaming kids is to lock the den door and jump on TRF, maybe that's why I am on 5 times a day....
