Model Reference
The Rolex GMT Master II 126710BLNR was introduced in 2018, bringing Rolex's latest generation of GMT Master II movement technology to the black and blue bezel reference. Production continues today, making it one of the current stainless steel GMT Master II models within Rolex's Professional collection.
Cerachrom bezel with black and blue color is the signature element that makes the model 126710BLNR recognizable and gives this watch its widely known name – "Batman". Apart from the unique appearance, the ceramic bezel of this watch is scratch resistant and will not fade with time but still keeps its functional properties and operates as a bidirectional 24-hour bezel for tracking an extra time zone.
In this case, there is the Rolex Calibre 3285, which is an automatic mechanism designed for the new generation of GMT Master II watches. It has Chronergy escapement, an independent adjustable local hour hand and approximately 70 hours of power reserve. This allows the travelers to adjust the local time and do it without affecting the movement of the watch and the GMT time.
This Rolex GMT Master II has an Oystersteel 40mm case with Triplock screw down crown, Sapphire Crystal, and Oyster case structure. To complete the reference of the watch, there are two types of bracelet to be chosen by the buyers: Jubilee bracelet or Oyster bracelet.
The 126710BLNR represents the approach of Rolex to continuous improvement rather than re-designing the watch. The combination of current technology of the mechanism together with one of the most recognisable designs of the bezel of the collection resulted in the creation of the watch that combines the original concept of the Rolex GMT Master II with the advantages of modern mechanical innovations.
As it was designed for people who travel around different time zones, the 126710BLNR includes an independent local hour hand and 24-hour rotating bezel. In combination with Calibre 3285 and tough Cerachrom bezel, the 126710BLNR has become one of the most popular versions of the modern GMT Master II.
