Overview

Designed for the modern traveler, the GMT-Master II allows wearers to simultaneously track multiple time zones. Its robust construction and innovative features make it an ideal companion for those who traverse the globe.

Design and Craftsmanship

The GMT-Master II stands out with its green ceramic dial, a first for Rolex, achieved through advanced manufacturing techniques. This vibrant dial is complemented by a two-color Cerachrom bezel insert in green and black ceramic, featuring engraved numerals and graduations for the 24-hour scale. The bezel's bidirectional rotatable design allows for easy adjustment of a second time zone. Crafted from 18 ct white gold, the case exudes elegance and ensures durability.

Movement and Performance

At the heart of the GMT-Master II is Rolex's caliber 3285, a self-winding mechanical movement entirely developed and manufactured in-house. This movement incorporates the patented Chronergy escapement, which enhances energy efficiency and reliability. The oscillator features a paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring, providing resistance to shocks and temperature variations. With a power reserve of approximately 70 hours, the watch offers consistent and precise performance.

Features and Complications

The GMT-Master II is equipped with an additional 24-hour hand and a 24-hour graduated bezel, enabling the display of a second time zone. The independently adjustable hour hand allows travelers to set the local time without affecting the minute and seconds hands. The date display, positioned at 9 o'clock, is magnified by the Cyclops lens for easy reading. Furthermore, the watch is waterproof up to 100 meters (330 feet), thanks to its Oyster case construction and screw-down winding crown with the Triplock triple waterproofness system.
