Rolex GMT-Master ii 40mm
126711CHNR

The 2021 Rolex GMT-Master II Ref. 126711CHNR, commonly known as the “Root Beer”, is one of the more distinctive modern GMT models. This Rolex GMT-Master II Root Beer combines stainless steel with 18ct Everose gold. The two metals work beautifully with the brown-and-black ceramic bezel. As a result, the watch has a warmer look than the traditional steel GMT models.

Design of the Rolex GMT-Master II Root Beer

The brown-and-black bezel gives the Root Beer its famous nickname. It pairs perfectly with the rosy glow of Everose gold. In addition, the ceramic insert resists scratches and keeps its rich colours over time.

The two-tone finish adds a touch of luxury. Even so, the watch stays sporty enough for everyday wear. Therefore, it moves easily from the office to a weekend away.

Movement and features

The 40mm case houses Rolex’s automatic Calibre 3285. Its GMT function lets you track a second time zone. Meanwhile, the movement offers roughly 70 hours of power reserve.

The watch also shows the date beneath a sapphire crystal. Furthermore, it offers 100m water resistance. In short, it is a truly practical watch despite its more luxurious finish.

Why choose this Root Beer GMT

This 2021 example comes as a complete set with its original box and papers. A full set adds peace of mind and supports long-term value. With the extra presence of Everose gold, the 126711CHNR is a great option. Above all, it suits someone who wants a GMT-Master II that stands apart from the usual steel references.
