SUMMARY

Launched in 2018, the ref. 126711CHNR is significant in the GMT-Master II lineage, being the first to incorporate rose gold, alongside its full precious metal counterpart. Known by collectors as the “Root Beer”, its nickname is derived from collectable vintage examples that share brown and gold design elements. The case measures 40mm in diameter with large squared-off lugs synonymous with contemporary Rolex design. Another distinguishing feature of Rolex’s iconic travel watch is the bi-colour bezel, seen here in brown and black to perfectly complement the rose gold’s warm tones.
