2016 GMT 2 - Black & Blue

Hi All
New to this site but thought I would post this if anyone wanted one of these watches.

I almost bought a GMT Blue and Black yesterday from a private seller but before I did I phoned every Rolex main dealer in the UK to see if anyone had one of these illusive watches without a premium added to them.

Well luckly for me I found one and paid a deposit so will be collecting it tomorrow :-) however during my calls I came across another main dealer that had one delivered this morning so if anyone wants one today phone 0207 292 0345 which is the massive store just up from Harrords.

cheers
Andrew

Congrats! I have had mine coming up on a year now, my first (and so far, only) foray into the world of Rolex. I love it as much as the day I bought it, if not more!

FWIW- just this past weekend I finally saw another one in the wild; a passenger in First Class on a PHX-SEA flight, while I was making my way to steerage...!

There's a reason why it's so popular here on TRF and a hot seller....it just appeals to most people on so many levels with a useful complication. Extremely versatile watch as well, congrats on a fine buy.
