Rolex GMT-Master II 116710BLNR Replica Watch Review

Not everyone loves Rolex, but the brand has a storied history and has made numerable important contributions to horology that cannot be refuted. For instance, Rolex is widely credited with creating the first water-resistant watch; it is also responsible for the first watch with an automatically changing date, the Datejust; and the first watch to show two timezones at once, the GMT-Master.

It's kind of funny because the Rolex Submariner is the most copied watch in the world, but it's safe to say that the bright green Sub Mariner was a very bold and unique release for Rolexes. Can it be considered a "very bold" and "unique" release of RoleX due to its color scheme, or is it known to be very conservative in its releases? However, I have never worn anything that feels like a real Rolex Submariner on my wrist, and I have never worn anything...
