When this new Rolex GMT was unveiled in 2022, i༺t took the entire industry by surprise!
Indeed, the 126720VTNR is fitted with a never-seen-before black and green ceramic bezel. Furthermore, the crown is placed on the left side of the case, at 9 o’clock. This configuration is known as “destro”, referring to the fact that the watch is designed to be worn on ꦡthe left wrist.
While a few Rolex from the 19🔥50’s and 1960’s, including GMT, Submariner and Datejust were m𒁏ade with the crown at 9 o’clock, most probably upon special request, it is the first time Rolex has done it within its regular production.
Quickly nicknamed “Sprite” by the watch community, this model is subject to an extremely🌄 long waiting list. Che💝rished by collectors who have immediately understood its historical importance, less than a handful of them have appeared at auction.
This example is in most attractive condition and comes with its ori♐ginal Guarantee and♋ presentation case.
