Wow, what a gorgeous timepiece!

Lately Rolex released some fancy timepieces with diamonds and sapphire on Daytona and GMT.

I just got one RG GMT Master II 126755SARU from my AD, see picture below.

Retail is around 140-150k for those asking, since for some reason we're being so coy about pricing.

I know people have mixed feelings about this watch but I personally see it as a piece of functional jewelry that will be passed down to my children one day. The gem setting is simply exquisite and the quality of the stones impeccable. Also realized this could be the very first yellow gold Daytona on oyster *bracelet* that has the newer 40.5mm maxi style case with the thicker crown guards and downward curved lugs (it’s about time!)

While the rainbow was my original grail, I think this one tops it for me now personally due to the combination of YG, the unique design of the pave dial, and white diamonds, which I think is a lot more wearable.

Hope you all enjoy the photos!
Cheers and best wishes to you all










Beautiful piece. Congrats again.

I would maybe be a bit self-conscious wearing that in public but I could certainly see myself wearing it around the home or at family gatherings. Gardening even. I wouldn't need the approval of others to enjoy it.
Likewise the Rainbow.

What a great understated piece, same as the title of the thread (not flexing / showing off at all). Congrats and wear in good health!

Wow what a crazy but awesome piece. I could never pull that off, both aesthetically and financially, but I'm sure this watch will stay in your family for many generations. Congratulations!

Congrats on an amazing piece!

How many links did they need to remove when sizing? It feels like it would be painful to just store them in the box!

Would love to know if the MSRP is in line with the RBOW Daytona.

Appreciate seeing the pics, not for me, nor is the Rainbow version. But I see why one would be smitten with such a dazzling piece.

I personally do not like this piece at all but I understand the appeal given it's rarity. I think that for an Saudi Sheik or Vegas high roller it's would be extremely appealing but I would personally not wish to wear that kind of bling thing. I congratulate you however on getting an extremely rare and valuable piece that will no doubt hold its value extremely well and become a family heirloom.

Fantastic piece. Congrats and wear in good health.

I had a chance to get a rainbow Daytona from my AD when a few of them trickled through after launch a few years back.

First thing that came to mind was where/when was I going to wear it. So I turned it down like an idiot.
