More Photoshop Fun: A Few More...

J.B.K. (Hannes) from the German Rolex Forum was wondering what the Ceramic GMT would look like with a Pepsi dial so he created the top image which I saw several weeks ago. It made me wonder what it would look like with a Coke Bezel so I had some Photoshop Fun and modified his image and created the second graphic at the bottom.

All I can say is that I really hope Rolex comes out with these bezels because they look so cool!!!

Follow Up on Pan Am White GMT IIs

PCS's beautifully customized watches really made me think:

I really like them and I knew Rolex made the Pepsi with a white dial as seen in the fourth images below, but I did not realize they also originally made the black bezel with the white dial as well.

The watches above are GMT II Rolex Watches with Rolex Explorer II white dials.  The watch below is an original 1959 Pan AM GMT with a white dial and black bezel.  So basically when I was saying that I loved the Black Bezel GMT with a White Dial and that Rolex should make this watch, I did not realize they did make it 45 years ago as Reference Number 6542.

I did some research on the original white dial GMTs and it turns out they are extremely rare and if you can find one for sale they have a current market value of at least $100,000.

Rolex GMT II Ceramic & Stainless

The 50th anniversary edition of the GMT II was revealed at BaselWorld in Switzerland in 2006.  

This new model uses Rolex's patented Parachrom hairspring.  This overhaul makes this watch night and day different from the Pepsi, Coke and Black Bezel GMTs. 

The new GMT II Ceramic represents the shape of things to come from Rolex with its Super Case, Maxi Markers, Fat Hands & Fat Lugs, and Triplock Crown.  The Ceramic bezel is extremely durable and resists fading and scratches.  The arabic numbers on the bezel are filled with a layer of platinum which is applied using a process named physical vapor deposition.
