Rolex GMT-Master

Solid gold sports Rolex models are just about our favorite anachronism! The first thing you notice about a watch like this is the weight. There is something instantly satisfying about the heft of a solid gold watch. And for some inexplicable reason, Rolex gold is so much more satisfying than all other gold. There's no science behind that statement - just trust us.   After the weight, just take a look at that dial - this example features a beautifully rich matte brown 'nipple' dial with gilt printing that earns it the nickname 'Root Beer'. Dating from circa 1967 and featuring an expertly refinished case and deep hallmarks, this is truly one of the most iconic variations Rolex has ever made, and is as captivating in bright light as it is in the waning hours. Best of all is its incredible 'ghosted' bezel insert, which exudes so much character it'll be sure to draw stares from across a crowded room. Look us in the eye and tell us that doesn't sound great to you. There are GMT-Masters and then there are GMT-Masters. This is one of the latter.
