The Rolex GMT-Master II Ref 126719BLRO: A New Classic in White Gold

The GMT-Master collection is one of Rolex's most well-known. It dates back to 1954, initially launching as a solution for pilots. In 1984, the Rolex GMT-Master II line began and offered more capabilities for aviation professionals and travelers.

The Ref 126719BLRO continues the long-held legacy of the GMT-Master watch, bringing new features in a classic package.

Rolex White Gold Construction

One thing that sets the Ref 126719BLRO apart from other GMT-Master II watches is its all-gold construction. The 40-millimeter case is 18-karat white gold. The material also appears on the dial, crown, and three-link Oyster bracelet.

Rolex White Gold Construction

This isn't the first Rolex watch forged from white gold. However, it became one of the first widely available Rolex white gold watches in the GMT-Master line when it launched in 2018. Most are entirely stainless steel.

A Unique Dial

Another distinct feature of the Ref 126719BLRO is its dial. The watch is available with a midnight blue dial. However, you can also get it with a meteorite dial. The Ref 126719BLRO is the only Rolex GMT-Master II watch with this dial.

The material comes from a real meteorite. It's cut in a way that shows off its metallic grain pattern.

With both the meteorite and midnight blue dial, this Rolex white gold watch features blue-glowing Chromalight indices. Each index marking has an outline of white gold. The material also appears on the Mercedes-style hour hand, pointed minute hand, dotted second hand, and the arrow of the dedicated GMT hand.

This watch also has a date display. It's at the 3 o'clock position, and it features a Cyclops magnifying lens over the standard scratch-resistant sapphire crystal.

A Unique Dial

The Two-Toned Pepsi Bezel

Surrounding the dial is the iconic Pepsi bezel. The term Pepsi is a moniker watch enthusiasts use to describe the color of the Cerachrom bezel. Officially, it's bleu-rouge. That's why the BLRO appears on the reference number.

The bidirectional bezel allows you to set a third time zone. It has a 24-hour scale that you can use alongside the GMT hand. The top half of the bezel is blue while the bottom is red. This two-toned look allows you to easily differentiate the daytime and nighttime hours when tracking multiple time zones. It's an iconic part of the Rolex GMT-Master II line that the Ref 126719BLRO white gold watch continues.

The Caliber 3285 Movement

Ticking inside the white gold watch is the Caliber 3285 movement. It's one of Rolex's latest in-house movements. There are a few notable innovations in the design.

Caliber 3285 uses the Chronergy escapement. It's a dependable escapement that improves energy efficiency by as much as 15%. As a result, the movement provides up to 70 hours of power reserve. This movement also has the Parachrom hairspring for better reliability and protection from shocks and bumps. It's also unaffected by temperature swings, making the Ref 126719BLRO one of the most precise watches in the GMT-Master II line.
