The Rolex GMT-Master wristwatch was originally designed in collaboration with Pan American Airways and issued by the airline to their crews on long-haul flights. (“GMT” in the name stands for Greenwich Mean Time also known as Coordinated Universal Time.
In the early 1980s the Rolex GMT-Master II was released (although production of the original version
continued alongside it until the late 1990s). Although the watch looks almost identical it uses a
movement that has the additional capability of an independently adjustable quickset hour hand that can
be adjusted to local time without stopping the seconds or disturbing the minutes and 24 hour GMT hand.
As the watch continues to feature the rotatable bezel it is able to quickly compute any third timezone reference.
Although the original Rolex GMT Master was available only in stainless steel, as it was conceived as a
functional work watch, Rolex has been making luxury versions in both mixed steel and gold, and all-gold since the 1950s,
and there are even exotic variations that incorporate elaborate designs that include precious stones.
