Rolex GMT-Master II “Meteorite” White Gold 126719BLRO - 2019

Rolex GMT-Master II “Meteorite” Ref. 126719BLRO (18K White Gold, 2019)

The Rolex GMT-Master II with reference 126719BLRO from 2019 is one of the most spectacular and sought-after creations in the entire history of the Geneva manufacture. When it was introduced in 2019, Rolex set a new standard for absolute exclusivity: the combination of the legendary red-and-Blue “Pepsi” Ceramic bezel with a solid 18-karat White Gold case and a fascinating dial made of genuine extraterrestrial meteorite rock. This timepiece creates the perfect bridge between the iconic tool watch for intercontinental pilots and the most refined space aesthetic in haute horlogerie.

• Unique meteorite dial (Widmanstätten structure): The dial originates from the core of a prehistoric iron meteorite that drifted through space millions of years ago. A special acid-etching process reveals the breathtaking crystalline Widmanstätten structure. Since every piece of meteorite rock has a completely individual pattern, each dial of this reference is an absolute one-of-a-kind.

• The iconic two-tone “Pepsi” Cerachrom bezel: The defining feature is the bidirectionally rotatable 24-hour bezel made of extremely scratch-resistant Cerachrom Ceramic in Red and Blue (BLRO - Bleu/Rouge). The masterful production of two-tone Ceramic from a single block is regarded as a technical masterpiece by Rolex. The numerals are elegantly coated with platinum using the PVD process.

• Solid 18-karat White Gold case: The 40 mm Oyster case is cast at Rolex’s in-house foundry from exclusive 18-karat White Gold. It offers the cool, understated sheen of stainless steel, yet possesses the tangible, incomparable weight and feel of the finest precious metal.

• Two time zones at a glance: The characteristic red GMT hand with its arrow tip and the rotatable 24-hour bezel make it easy to read a second time zone (home or reference time) alongside the local time shown by the main hands.

• In-house manufacture calibre 3285: Inside, the new-generation movement (Cal. 3285) is beating. Equipped with the patented Chronergy escapement, the antimagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring and the Paraflex shock-resistant system, it offers an impressive power reserve of approximately 70 hours with the highest chronometer precision (-2/+2 seconds per day).

• Scratch-resistant Sapphire Crystal with Cyclops lens: The flat Sapphire Crystal reliably protects the valuable meteorite dial from external influences, while the legendary lens at 3 o’clock provides 2.5x magnification of the date.

• Solid Oyster bracelet in 18K White Gold: The watch is worn on the classic three-link Oyster bracelet made of solid 18-karat White Gold, with satin-finished outer links and high-polished centre links. The Oysterlock safety folding clasp features the practical Easylink system for quickly extending the bracelet by 5 mm.

• A sought-after modern Holy Grail (2019 launch year): As a model from the debut year of 2019 for the meteorite reference 126719BLRO, this watch is an exceptionally coveted collector’s item. The combination of the rarest natural material, the finest White Gold and the most recognisable Rolex bezel design guarantees maximum value retention and incomparable presence.
