PRE-OWNED ROLEX 126711CHNR GMT MASTER II WATCHES
Production Years:
The Rolex GMT Master II 126711CHNR was introduced to the market in 2018, and it is the first appearance of the Root Beer color since its last appearance in the 2007 model. However, the famous brown color scheme was given a makeover as the new addition in the collection did not follow the past patterns. Instead, the watch utilizes a combination of Everose Rolesor and a new black and brown ceramic bezel in addition to the latest GMT Master II movement. As of now, the timepiece remains in production as a part of the current Professional collection.
Defining Features
The character of the 126711CHNR comes from its colors. The combination of an 18ct Everose gold with a brown and black Cerachrom bezel gives this GMT Master II its warm character. It combines the sportiness of another GMT Master II steel version with dark colors and a precious metal.
This new watch features a Rolex Calibre 3285, newly developed for the GMT Master II. With its 70 hour power reserve and the possibility to set the local hour hand independently, it makes changing time zones a child’s play.
Rolex has equipped this GMT Master II with a 40 mm Oyster case and an Oyster bracelet made of Oystersteel and 18ct Everose gold Rolesor. The Oysterlock folding clasp, Easylink and Triplock crown, and the 100 meter water resistance complete the picture. Everything speaks of comfort and everyday use, despite the luxury material and elegant design of the 126711CHNR.
About Rolex Model Number 126711CHNR
The nickname "Root Beer" existed even before this particular watch came onto the scene, yet the 126711CHNR's iteration gave the name a new lease of life. Previous iterations used an aluminium bezel insert and yellow gold while the latest version uses ceramic and Everose gold; it still maintains the colour palette that "Root Beer" admirers have come to know and love over the years.
This is precisely the charm of this masterpiece. It has a certain sense of nostalgia and legac the comes with the GMT Master II references before it that bore the "Root Beer" nickname while still utilising the advancements in material and movement that Rolex has to offer. As such, this reference can appeal to collectors looking for something different from the ubiquitous Pepsi or Batman GMT Master II references that are prevalent today.
