Rolex

…Stay safe and have a wonderful weekend! (shot on 35mm)

Cheers!!

What’s it been like living with this GMT? I am considering selling some of my watches in order to get this meterorite dial. The combination of Rolex engineering and this dial is very compelling!

…and wasn’t until very recently that I pulled the trigger. it very much lives up to the expectations. Imo, it’s a near perfect watch and really couldn’t be happier…but there are a few things:
-it’s hefty, Rolex WG feels almost like platinum for other brands, it took a couple weeks of non-stop wearing for me to get used it. Now I really enjoy the weight, very solid. It’s also interesting the WG has a warm luster/hue. hard to describe, it doesn’t really come out in pictures
-at certain angles / lighting dial readability can be slightly challenging but usually a half degree turn of the wrist fixes it. the way the light plays with the patterning on the dial makes up for any illegibility.
I’ve worn it for almost a month straight, and the timing has been great, easily within the +/-2s range. If you have any other questions, don’t hesitate to ask, it really is an amazing piece, I’ll likely pass this down…don’t see myself ever selling it.

I don’t mind heavy watches. I currently have a James Cameron which must be a bit lighter than you GMT but within the same ballpark. The weight feels heavy in the hand but, when it’s wrapped around the wrist, it’s fine.
I could live with slight legibility issues for that dial!
Thanks again,
Jon
