Root-Beer GMT II pics

Hi all, some quick and dirty pics of my new (to me) GMT II, now I'm no photographer but I find this one really hard to capture - the dial is not as dark as the photo's would suggest.
I actually bought this one through eBay but only because the seller was close enough to me and I was able to drive over to check it over in person - it's a 2005 model with box/papers/booklets and it is the newest Rolex I own!
Regards - Neil.

Nice GMT Neil!

I have pretty much convinced myself that my next Rolex will be a Turn-O-Graph, but I may give the GMT another look. Beginning to like the root beer dial.

Excellent photos of a marvelous Rolex, Neil.

I'm including a couple of photos of mine to show that the dial is indeed lighter. Enjoy your new acquisition - I am wearing mine all weekend!

Sure - it's an 'F' series, first sold in late 2005

Great photo, Brendan. The Rootbeer is a great GMT, in MHO!
