The black gmt master II is my everyday watch. Bought it in 2005 and still looks brand new. Further the price I paid was $4500 in 2005. Its price on the used market is now $12k. Amazing.

Great review. I've had my blnr for a year and love the jubilee bracelet. It doesn't show the fine scratches like the mk1 with PCL's. I checked my GMT hand under a loupe and the blue paint is perfect. I was surprised by what you found, is Rolex relaxing it's quality control. Keep up the great work. Mark 👍

Excellent production quality and honest review Hafiz. I find your content to be stellar. Keep up the good work! I believe the Batgirl is much more desirable than the Pepsi. Its the Batgirl is a beautiful watch, but doesnt scream look at me , which the red part of the bezel on the Pepsi does.The Batgirl is a bit more understated and offers more versatility matching your attire. I can justify paying a premium of 10 to % to 15 % maximum as a premium on a used model, but the ridiculous 50% or more mark up on the gray market is just insane. I am fine wearing my submariner or my DJ 41until I get the call from the AD or the gray market premiums come back down to earth. Cheers and to the watch aficionados out there, I hope you enjoy wearing the watches you love, in excellent health.

After handling both several times, the Batgirl is superior in that it's much easier to match with clothes, dresses up better due to less flashy colors and just appears more classy. Unless you're wearing a blue and red shirt as in this vid, the red is going to command too much attention and look out of place. I went with the batgirl and haven't looked back.

Is it worth it?......For many the answer is no, and for many the answer is clearly yes. The value of a watch is rarely the sum of its parts and craftsmanship involved - sometimes more and sometimes less. It depends also on marketing, style, longevity, history, value retention and the desire of the consumer stoked by all these factors.
