Haute Horologe Review: Rolex GMT-Master II – A Comprehensive Guide to GMT Mastery
Rolex launched the Oyster Perpetual GMT Master in 1955, and it has gone through several transformations over the years. In collaboration with Pan American Airways, the GMT-Master II was launched in the 1980s and has become the ultimate cosmopolitan luxury watch. Now preowned watches from leading luxury brands are available at Haute Horologe in Dubai.
Here are the features that make the GMT-Master II unique and sought-after by watch lovers:
Two Time Zones: A notable feature of GMT-Master II is the ability to display multiple time zones simultaneously. Either the local time or the reference time, or the local time and alternative time zone It has the traditional hour, minute, and second hands. That apart, there is a triangle-tipped 24-hour hand, a bidirectional rotatable bezel, and a 24-hour graduated Cerachrom insert. The bezel rotation is made with a tigonal spring, which enables easy movement in both directions. The model is a favorite of frequent globetrotters and pilots who need to track multiple time zones.
Robust Construction: The GMT-Master II is capable of withstanding challenging and harsh environments. It is made of Oyster Steel and Gold, yellow, white, or everrose gold. It is water-resistant up to a depth of 100 meters (330 feet) and good for swimming and snorkeling.
Legibility: The GMT-Master II allows you to know the time even in the dark thanks to its Chromalight display. A luminescent material emits light from the hands and hour markers. They are set in simple shapes such as triangles, circles, and rectangles.
Calibre 3285 Movement: The Calibre 3285 movement enables travelers to easily adjust their local time via the winding crown. This is possible without stopping the watch or the 24-hour hand getting affected. This is a self-winding movement developed in-house by Rolex. It offers precise timing and has a power reserve of 70 hours. This enables smooth functioning of the timepiece even if the watch is not worn for days.
