First Rolex - BNIB 11670LN

Well that was quick! Trusted Seller SohAIS sold me a BNIB GMT Master II Ceramic. Funds were sent around 3:30PM yesterday and he had the watch shipped out that night. I received it this morning.

First impressions. It's a beautiful watch. It feels very small after wearing my 47mm for some time, but that's perfect for when I need a low profile watch. I'm very excited and look forward to swapping between this and my 47 daily. I wear my watches anywhere and everywhere (except latin america).

I love the Satin/Polished combination. Breitling did an excellent job of that on my GMT and I'm thrilled to have it on my Rolex.

I'll post more later but here are a couple of quick snaps. I just realized I set the GMT hand wrong on the Rolex.

I had to watch a YouTube video to learn how to set my GMT. It's not intuitive.

Wow, that GMT looks tiny compared to your Breitling!

Congratulations.

Holy cow...47mm?! I just don't understand what compels companies to make, and people to wear, such enormous watches. To each their own, of course...and I realize everything's bigger in Texas...but wow.

Congrats on the GMT!
