Rolex Gmt-Master II 126711Chnr Watch Review

It's taken five lengthy years, but Rolex has finally provided us with a stainless-steel GMT-Master II having a blue and red Pepsi Cerachrom bezel. Together with that, Rolex also gave us two new GMT-Master II watches with brown and black bezels that, for me, tend to be more important and newsworthy. Here's your hands-on report from the new Rolex GMT-Master II Reference 126711CHNR "Root Beer."

The brand new GMT-Master II Reference 126711CHNR

It is significant for a few reasons. To start, this is actually the very first time Rolex has utilized Everose gold for that GMT-Master II. Furthermore, this is actually the also the very first time that Rolex has created a brown and black Cerachrom bezel. The general answers are quite stunning, but more about this later, let’s discuss the specifications from the watch.

The situation continues to be slightly redesigned around the flanks as well as on the lugs to permit Rolex to optimize the polishing process. Rolex states the lugs are sharper and also the situation sides are better, however i think many people will need to squint to differentiate. Situation diameter remains at 40mm and water proofing, because of the Triplock crown, can also be unchanged at 100m.

The Reference 126711CHNR

Posseses an Oyster-style bracelet with polished center links made from Everose gold and brushed side links constructed stainless. It's well crafted and it is outfitted using the familiar Oysterlock folding clasp and Easylink extension. The Easylink extension is a great contraption that lets proprietors rapidly expand the bracelet by around 5mm. This can be a lifesaver, especially if you live somewhere which has a tropical climate.

The highlight from the situation may be the brown and black bi-color bezel. Such as the black and blue bezel from the Reference 116710BLNR from 2013, the bezel needs to be observed in the flesh to become correctly appreciated. Unlike the Pepsi Cerachrom bezel, that is unmistakably blue and red. The brown and black "Root Beer" bezel is much more dynamic. Under direct light, the brown portion of the bezel pops and seems similar to honey, which complements the Rolesor bracelet perfectly. Under dimmer conditions, the brown section seems more subdued and almost blends using the black portion of the bezel. This will make the Reference 126711CHNR more interesting to check out and put on.

Another factor which makes this reference unique is its dial. The dial is black however it distinguishes itself using its 18k gold hour markers and hands. The GMT-Master II wording at 6 o'clock is within gold. Overall, the appearance jogs my memory from the gilt dials of vintage Rolexes. This will make the Reference 126711CHNR special one of the other GMTs because they have white-colored gold markers and hands. More to the point, the gold markers and hands when combined with brown and black bezel and Everose situation and bracelet, provide the Reference 126711CHNR a really warm feel and look into it. It almost enables you to feel fuzzy inside.

Gone may be the traditional Calibre 3186 and instead may be the new Calibre 3285. This latest movement features Rolex’s new Chronergy escapement along with a considerably longer and practical power reserve of 70 hrs.
