With that size wrist, I’d look at the deepsea James Cameron and Sky-Dweller.
Not dis-similar price wise, and what I’d be wearing with a larger wrist.
Ive just had the call from my AD to offer me a 126711 and Im off to have a look later, buying it will mean something will have to go so Im keen to hear any owners thoughts and long term views, I appreciate not the most in demand piece however Ive never had two tone and always liked my previous GMT's I miss the 16710, Latest Pepsi and Batman also pieces that I enjoy and so this will offer me something different to what Ive had previously as tended to wear SS sports.
Im hoping ill bond with it but I have thick wrists 8.5 so tend to wear bigger pieces
Thanks in advance

Not like you are buying unseen from someone on here for example………….
Go along, try it, and make your mind up?
There is no-one who can assist you liking a two-tone.
I don’t mind a two tone watch and have owned a few previously but the root beer does nothing for me, think it must black/brown bezel. You have nothing to loose having a look but for £14.3k there are other watches that I would prefer.

It is a lovely watch. But do bear in mind the 32xx movement issues. That issue alone made me pass on the CHNR last year. 2 of my 3 32xx watches have experienced the movement problem (amplitude and time keeping dropping off a cliff) and each has been back twice to Rolex under warranty repair (now fixed, temporarily at least).

Great watches IMO and more importantly, versatile to regular wardrobe changes.
Beautiful watch,classy till i paid for it. Then i changed my mine and felt it showy and blingy. Kept it 18 months or so and never wore it out of the house. Prefer a sub or a seadweller.
I went to look at one in Watches of Whitby and experienced great customer experience. Coffee and a biscuit and all the time in the world to look at the watch without any pressure. I liked the watch but felt that the two tone was too bright and attention grabbing and ultimately decided that it wasn't for me. I've looked at them again since and have no regrets about not buying it.
Lovely watch, possibly the only one I would wear in bimetal, I’d wait a wee while as it’ll be cheaper Grey

A friend of mine has one, its a nice watch but very showy.
Great if you like to flex I guess!
Thanks for all the feedback it’s appreciated, I loved it and brought it without hesitation - agreed it’s all the things mentioned hence the pictureit’s definitely showy and look at me ;)
Look forward to seeing how I feel over time

I have several Rolex GMT Master II's in my collection with the 3285 movement and over many years of ownership I have had zero issues with them all. It's kind of why you have a cast iron Rolex warranty should anything ever go wrong.......which is never as often as the internet would have you believe!
I’ve had one for a couple of years and love it.
Looking good. Not too small.

Well that suits you Sir! I had one for a while and sometimes wish I kept it. A lovely iteration of the GMT. If I was offered one again I would buy back as I am in the market for another GMT. NB: I have 3 32xxx Rolex and not had any issues.
Gratuitous picture of mine (the eagle eyed will see I switched to full brushed steel bracelet from my LV to tone it down a little).
Only sold to buy a different trinket.

Ah, I remember the TZ-UK VTG that I talked you into having a go and switching to the submariner bracelet…
We were a few sherbets in by that stage and you needed no further encouragement. I thought it best that you checked out whether it fitted, before I gave it a go with mine.😀
Nice choice. I've been on the imaginary list for this for a while.
If you know where to shop you can pick up a 2018 for £500-600 below retail. But I suppose a 6-7 year old watch is probably going to need a service which isn’t cheap.
Nice one, underrated model in my opinion.
Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.
Great watch, I love the two tone GMT. Congratulations
I love them, health to enjoy! My 50th is 4 years away and I keep promising myself one for then. Been offered 2 from my AD.. in the last 2 years, however some of the TT yellow gold subs/ SD's have recently caught my eye as well.
