Originally designed to enable PanAm pilots to see two different time-zones at a glance, the Rolex GMT soon became favoured among business travellers in general. The reference 126711 is part of the current line up of GMT-Master II launched in 2018. Instantly recognisable with its black and brown 'Root Beer' bezel, the reference is also the first time Rolex have combined Everose gold and stainless steel for a GMT-Master II, making the model even more distinctive.
