Just a sneak preview from the new Rolex catalog>>>>>
I got this one today, in the new color light green.



Nice YMII pic.



A few pages from the sport section, sorry in Swedish.





No regular Sea Dweller longer.





Great pics and some interesting facts about Rolex inside.

Just ask for one at your AD.

Just curious - the micro etched crown on the crystal of the GMT-IIc is it visible with the naked eye? I can't see mine. In addition, do all of them say rolex...rolex...rolex on the inside and have the serial number at the bottom? Thx!

You have to get a loupe to see the laser logo but it's hard to find it anyway.

Yes the serial number is at the 6 o'clock position inside the RolexRolex ring at them all.

Can't order one from their website, but got mine from a local AD they had lots in but said would'nt last long as they go like wildfire so suggest you get down to your local AD and see if they have one before they all go

Do you think they'd ship one over to the states if we called that number?

You could give it a shot, Paulie.....or just ask our TOPH to oblige. He sent me the same one with a matching price list in Pounds Sterling!!

I picked up mine from the RSC, and my 1.5 year-old son couldn't stop playing with the front/back covers ... making a triangle or a roof.

I had to put it away in the bookshelf before he started to tear the pages out.

I like to look of the RG Daytona with the RG dial on the left, and would love to see one in the flesh

i got a new one from toronto RSC and i even have the baby booklet for it. one day my mom visited me and saw the book and all my rolex collection so she decided to throw it away (she was thinking that's the reason why i buy all the watches when it's actually this forum's fault). i went back to RSC to get another one they ran out. i can always go back in march.
