Land,sea and air.

To me these three modern iterations of the veritable tool watch brand represents the very best in their class. The Daytona and the Submariner are probably the most recognised and sort after in their respective categories and the GMT is no less important in the field of aviation and its purpose in differentiating time zones.

Three iconic and updated versions of the original. They may not be your favourite but who can deny the impact they have made to the general watch community.


 



Thanks for looking.
 
Cheers
Fernando


Like a military recruitment ad!

The Army, Navy and Airforce!
I like your photo alot of 3 iconic Rolexes representing the Land, Sea and Air. Really nice Fernando.
Thanks for sharing the pic

The bruiser GMT is something on my radar, if I want to get a modern Rolex.

Yes, that is an interesting idea, for a collection.

Each Professional model has its interest, these 3 and, of course the Seadweller, the Yachtmaster, without forgetting the Explorer.

6 watches, 6 references, 6 watches with a lot of History...

Tempting.

Best, my friend.

GMT-BLNR as Air & Space?

 
 By: GhostInTheMachine : July 24th, 2014-20:01
Since it is a modern new color combo meant as the dawn of space habitation (International Space Station, Space Shuttle) and now commercial space, perhaps it's Air & Space?  There was or may still be a magazine called Air & Space.

nice triple black

 
 By: GhostInTheMachine : July 24th, 2014-15:52
1, 2, 3, what more do you need?  Very nice trio.

I am starting to think the GMT-II BLNR is the air & space together.

Thanks for the kind words. :) [nt]

But it doesn't love me as it doesn't sit well on my wrist. smile

First thought Mercedes-Benz...

 
 By: patrick_y : July 27th, 2014-11:00
The Mercedes-Benz three-pointed star stands for the company's (former) involvement in making engines for land, sea, and air applications.  

Today, the air and sea operations are mostly conducted by MTU.  

Great photo Fernando!  And nice collection of black-dialed Rolex sports-watches.  

Thanks for that bit of information Patrick! [nt]
