The Rolex GMT-Master II GMT Black Dial Men’s Watch 40mm is a timeless and versatile timepiece that blends sophisticated design with advanced functionality. This model, highly regarded among travelers and watch enthusiasts, embodies the precision and reliability that Rolex is renowned for.
Design and Case
The GMT-Master II features a 40mm case crafted from Oystersteel, a high-grade stainless steel known for its superior corrosion resistance and exceptional durability. The polished and brushed finish of the case provides a sophisticated and robust look, suitable for both professional and casual settings.
The watch is equipped with a bidirectional rotatable bezel, featuring a 24-hour graduated Cerachrom insert in black ceramic. This ceramic bezel is not only scratch-resistant but also virtually impervious to UV rays, ensuring that its color will not fade over time. The bezel’s 24-hour graduation works in tandem with the GMT hand to allow the wearer to track a second time zone, a feature particularly useful for frequent travelers.
Dial
The dial of the GMT-Master II is a classic black, designed for optimal legibility and elegance. The dial is adorned with highly legible hour markers and hands, which are coated with Chromalight, a luminescent material that emits a long-lasting blue glow, ensuring readability in low-light conditions.
The red GMT hand, a hallmark of the GMT-Master II series, allows the wearer to read a second time zone against the 24-hour bezel. The dial also features a date window at the 3 o’clock position, magnified by Rolex’s iconic Cyclops lens for easy reading.
Movement
At the heart of the GMT-Master II is the Rolex Calibre 3285, a self-winding mechanical movement entirely developed and manufactured by Rolex. This movement is certified as a Swiss chronometer, a designation reserved for high-precision watches that have passed the stringent tests of the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC).
The Calibre 3285 is equipped with a Parachrom hairspring, which offers greater resistance to shocks and temperature variations, and high-performance Paraflex shock absorbers. The movement also boasts a power reserve of approximately 70 hours. It includes a stop-seconds mechanism for precise time setting and an independently adjustable 24-hour hand, allowing the wearer to easily set the local time without affecting the GMT hand.
Bracelet
The watch is fitted with the iconic Oyster bracelet, made from Oystersteel. This three-piece link bracelet is known for its robustness and comfort. It includes an Oysterlock folding safety clasp, which prevents accidental opening, and the Easylink 5mm comfort extension link, allowing the wearer to adjust the bracelet length for optimal comfort without the need for tools.
