The Rolex GMT-Master II Two-Tone “Root Beer” is a luxury watch renowned for its distinctive aesthetic and functionality. This model features a 40mm case crafted from a combination of Oystersteel and Everose gold, offering a balanced blend of durability and elegance. The “Root Beer” nickname comes from its brown and black Cerachrom bezel insert, which provides a warm and inviting contrast to the metallic elements of the watch. The bezel is bidirectional and rotatable, allowing the wearer to track a second time zone in conjunction with the 24-hour hand.
The dial is typically black, providing a stark backdrop for the luminous hour markers and hands, ensuring excellent legibility in various lighting conditions. A date window is positioned at 3 o’clock, magnified by the iconic Cyclops lens. The watch is powered by a self-winding mechanical movement, caliber 3285, manufactured by Rolex, known for its precision and reliability. It offers a power reserve of approximately 70 hours.
The bracelet is an Oyster or Jubilee type, also in a combination of Oystersteel and Everose gold, ensuring a comfortable and secure fit on the wrist. The clasp is a folding Oysterlock safety clasp with the Easylink comfort extension link, allowing for quick adjustments of about 5mm. This feature is particularly useful in changing temperatures or during physical activity. The GMT-Master II is water-resistant to 100 meters (330 feet), making it suitable for swimming and snorkeling. This timepiece combines luxury with practicality, making it a coveted item for both collectors and those who appreciate fine watchmaking.
