GMT-Master II White Gold / BLRO / Blue

The Rolex GMT-Master II reference 126719BLRO-0003 was introduced in 2019 as a successor to the earlier white-gold GMT-Master II reference 116719BLRO, which was produced between 2018 and 2019. The update brought the model in line with Rolex’s latest GMT architecture while retaining the combination of a white gold case and a blue-and-red ceramic bezel. The watch features a 40 mm Oyster case crafted from 18 ct white gold, constructed using Rolex’s monobloc architecture with a screw-down case back and Triplock screw-down winding crown. Water resistance is rated to 100 metres. A scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with a Cyclops lens covers the dial. A bidirectional rotatable 24-hour bezel is fitted with a two-colour Cerachrom insert in red and blue ceramic, with moulded numerals and graduations. The bezel works in conjunction with the 24-hour hand to display a second time zone. The dial is executed in midnight blue and features applied hour markers and hands filled with Chromalight luminescent material for enhanced legibility in low-light conditions. Powering the watch is the Rolex calibre 3285, a self-winding mechanical movement operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour. The movement incorporates a blue Parachrom hairspring, Paraflex shock absorbers, and a bidirectional Perpetual rotor. It offers an approximate power reserve of 70 hours and supports an instantaneous date display, stop-seconds for precise time setting, and independent rapid-setting of the local hour hand without stopping the movement. After casing, the movement is certified as a Superlative Chronometer. The watch is fitted with an Oyster bracelet in 18 ct white gold, composed of three-piece solid links. The bracelet is secured by a folding Oysterlock safety clasp and includes the Easylink comfort extension system, allowing the bracelet length to be adjusted by approximately 5 mm.
