Rolex GMT-Master II 126711CHNR

About This Watch

The Rolex GMT-Master II 126711CHNR, affectionately nicknamed the "Root Beer," is a two-tone masterpiece that combines Oystersteel with Rolex's proprietary 18k Everose gold. The brown and black Cerachrom ceramic bezel insert evokes the classic "Root Beer" GMT-Masters of the 1970s and 1980s, which were favorites of pilots and globe-trotters. Everose gold is Rolex's exclusive rose gold alloy, patented in 2005, which contains a precise amount of platinum that prevents the gold from fading over time, maintaining its warm pinkish hue indefinitely. The combination of the chocolate-brown and black bezel with the warm Everose gold accents creates a distinctive look that is both vintage-inspired and thoroughly modern. The black dial with Everose gold hour markers and hands provides excellent contrast and readability. Inside, the caliber 3285 with its 70-hour power reserve represents the latest in Rolex movement technology. The Oyster bracelet in Rolesor features alternating steel and gold center links that catch the light beautifully. This reference appeals to collectors who want the sportiness of a GMT-Master II with the warmth of rose gold, without the full commitment of a solid gold model. It is a travelers watch with true character.
