Not had mine long but I love it, it just happened to come into my local AD on the day I took the sub in for a service.

They showed me it and the rest is history as they say. :)

I think this BLNR is the best Rolex, in terms of comfort and wearability, and practical use that I have owned.

Love mine. I have had it for about a year and couldn't get one from an AD as "I was not a VIP customer" so I bought it from Takuya.

I'm quite pleased with my GMT II BLNR. I echo other posters' comments about the blue 24-hour hand visibility but the gorgeous bezel, especially in the sunlight, easily makes up for that. I also wasn't a fan of the PCLs on the bracelet, but that was easily and inexpensively fixed by getting them brushed.

I owned one and it was nice. I bought it for the wrong reasons though. I just liked the color. I am actually not a fan of GMT watches.

I ended up getting a Sub C date more up my alley.

They actually both wear the same and exact comfort.

GMT II BLNR or batman owners



I love this watch. It's so pretty though. Makes me wanna get an LN to throw on a nato just for contrast. Maybe my exp2 is contrast enough though......hmm.....

^ I prefer my sub that has brushed look bracelet, but I do tend to be more careful with my Oyster GMT VTNR, I would prefer Jubilee to take away that worry .. I feel I’m constantly looking for scratches, some of us have an OCD tendency that does occupy our mindset with PCL’s ..
