Rolex GMT Master 2 Batman Ref:126710BLNR 2023

The Rolex GMT-Master II “Batman” Ref. 126710BLNR is one of the most iconic and contemporary sports watches in the Rolex catalogue, famed for its distinctive black and blue Cerachrom bezel—a colourway that earned it the “Batman” nickname among collectors. The GMT-Master line was originally introduced in 1955, developed in collaboration with Pan American World Airways to assist pilots and frequent travelers in tracking multiple time zones. The 126710BLNR, released in 2019, updated the earlier 116710BLNR with the new Calibre 3285 movement, which incorporates Rolex’s Chronergy escapement, Parachrom hairspring, and offers a robust 70-hour power reserve, alongside a bidirectional rotatable bezel and the ability to independently adjust the local hour hand—hallmarks of the GMT complication. Unlike its predecessor, the 126710BLNR is fitted with the iconic Jubilee bracelet, enhancing comfort and balancing the sporty yet refined aesthetic. Within Rolex’s lineup, the GMT-Master II is positioned as a professional tool watch alongside the Submariner and Explorer, yet distinguished by its aviation heritage and dual-time functionality. The “Batman” stands out as one of the most desirable modern Rolex models, blending technical innovation with a bold, instantly recognisable design that appeals to both travellers and collectors alike.
