When Rolex introduced the famous GMT Master II in 18k white gold at baselworld 2014, the attraction was instant. The watch is heavy as it is cased in white gold as opposed to steel, but this does not take away from its easy-wearing and sporty persona. The 'Pepsi' bezel, sporting the colors blue and red, take their inspiration form the vintage GMT model 6542, however this bezel is ceramic instead of bakelite, offering a modem take on a classic icon. Scratch proof and without the possibility of color fade, it is a durable material which is favored by modern manufacturing standards.
Rolex have also improved the functionality of this GMT, the bezel clicks in one hour intervals which makes it easier to tell the time in three zones; home time, local time via the hour hand and a third if necessary via the rotatable bezel. The date change is linked to the local time thus the date window always displays the current date in the wearer's local time. The dial features improved legibility with the Chromalight hour markers and numerals and hands filed with a luminescent material emitting a long-lasting blue glow.
The first time Christie's is offering the GMT-Master II in white gold, furthermore offered 'complete' with all its accessories.
