Just bought a GMT, BEAUTIFUL! will post pics later...
great looking watch. picked up a second hand (from the original owner), but never used, its a 2006 D serial # SS GMT II with black and red bezel, full paperwork, boxes, and all...even store receipt right here in Cali.... I must say, it's a gorgeous watch! I dont understand how someone could buy something like this, never wear it, then sell it a year later? ehh, life is full of mysteries lol.

p.s. i am still on the hunt for my White Gold Daytona....the GMT is my "beater" lol....

Many congratulations on a great purchase, enjoy in good health.

Perhaps they never wore it because it was destined to belong to you?

The Morgan's in Palos Verdes has a White Gold Daytona for sale. I stopped by yesterday...$27,500. Too steep for the likes of me!

I find that hard to believe too but thank God some do. Otherwize it would have taken me a lot longer to get my GMT. Congrats on YOUR new watch.
Wear it in good health,

Wow, great shot Pat.

As a long term B/R GMT guy I'm really starting to take a shine to the all black & pepsi variants
