Buying 2015 GMT master II tomorrow

So excited, will be buying a gently used 2015 TT GMT master II tomorrow....I have been reading numerous posts to educated myself as to what expect as this is the first ceramic and relatively new/modern Rolex we have purchased. Anything I need to know as far as what to look for in this model or its little nuances? I have been noticing some posts about some noice from the bezel or movement in the ceramic bezel? Any points I should know about since it's the first modern ceramic I'll own? Thank you in advance.

I have two GMT ceramics, the 116710LN and the 116713LN. I've never had any problems with either watch whatsoever. The bracelet and bezel are as silent as can be on both, and the bezel operates smoothly and flawlessly on both.

Regards, -Rick.

It IS meant to be!

In my opinion, the two tone GMT Master II is quite possible the best overall two tone watch ever made.
