Any news on new GMT ll ?
Hello Everyone! Anybody heard from AD's about ceramic bezel colors for new GMT ll? Will Rolex eventually have GMT ll ceramic black-red bezel?

I'm with you Alex!
They're starting to show up so it shouldn't be long. I thought I read somewhere shorty after Bazel about the possibility of a RED/BLACK version if it could be worked out. Can't remember where that came from. Time will tell. |

There has been some difficulty in producing a two colour bezel in ceramic in one piece. It could be some time!

I forget...does the GMT II paperwork say what color bezel was on the watch originally? If I swap out my black bezel for a Pepsi, will anyone ever know what it was in the first place?

I don't think so Robert. As long as it [bezel, bracelet] is appropriate to the style of watch Rolex should have no problem with it or even know what was original. AFAIK.

The Rolex warranty paperwork does indicate what bezel the watch originally came with. A change to that might naturally raise some eyebrows, but it depends on who's looking. That being said, if you retain the original bezel insert and sell it with the watch, I think you'd be OK. I doubt you'd get an objection to that as long as you could produce the original. I know I certainly wouldn't think twice about it...hell, it's a plus. BONUS BEZEL INSERT!!!
