Watch by Rolex, GMT Master II, 126710

About the Rolex Rolex 126710 Ref. 126710

The Rolex GMT-Master II reference 126710 was introduced in 2018, marking a significant update to the GMT-Master II line. This reference is notable for reintroducing the Jubilee bracelet to the GMT-Master II collection, a feature previously associated with earlier GMT-Master models. It is distinguished by its Cerachrom bezel insert, available in specific color combinations, and the updated movement, enhancing its precision and functionality within the professional watch range.

This reference features a 40mm Oystersteel case, characteristic of Rolex's robust construction. It is equipped with the Caliber 3285, an automatic movement developed by Rolex, offering a power reserve of approximately 70 hours. The watch is fitted with a sapphire crystal and is water-resistant to 100 meters, ensuring durability and legibility under various conditions. The bidirectional rotatable 24-hour graduated bezel facilitates the tracking of multiple time zones.

The 126710 appeals to collectors interested in modern Rolex tool watches with historical design cues. Its introduction with the Jubilee bracelet provided a new aesthetic option for the GMT-Master II, complementing the existing Oyster bracelet variants. The availability of different bezel color combinations, such as the blue and red "Pepsi" or black and blue "Batman," further defines its place within the contemporary Rolex catalog.
