The Rolex GMT-Master II is one of the most recognized and celebrated dual-time-zone watches ever produced, originally developed in partnership with Pan American World Airways in the 1950s to allow pilots and flight crews to read two time zones simultaneously. Decades of refinement have transformed the GMT-Master II into an icon equally at home in the boardroom, the cockpit, and on the wrist of serious collectors worldwide. Reference 116748SARU sits at the very apex of this storied lineage, representing Rolex's most luxurious interpretation of the professional sports watch.

Constructed entirely in 18k yellow gold, the 116748SARU presents an immediately commanding presence. Yellow gold lends the 40mm Oyster case a warmth and depth that stainless steel and even white gold cannot replicate, signaling connoisseurship rather than mere ostentation. The case dimensions place it in the sweet spot of modern wrist presence — substantial without being oversized — and the Oyster architecture ensures the robust, tool-watch DNA of the GMT-Master II is never far from the surface.

The gem-set bezel is the defining visual statement of this reference. Rather than the ceramic or aluminum insert found on the broader GMT-Master II lineup, the 116748SARU features a bezel pavéd with carefully selected and matched stones that catch and scatter light with every movement of the wrist. It is a detail that requires exceptional craftsmanship and elevates this watch firmly into haute horlogerie territory, distinguishing it from virtually every other dual-time-zone sport watch on the market.

Beneath the black dial — which provides a dramatically rich backdrop that makes the golden hour markers and hands read with exceptional legibility — beats a certified authentic Rolex automatic movement, continuing the brand's commitment to in-house mechanical excellence. The self-winding mechanism has long been praised for its precision and reliability. Water resistance to 100 meters (330 feet) is retained, a testament to the Oyster case's enduring engineering integrity even in this fully jeweled, precious-metal expression.

The Oyster bracelet in matching 18k yellow gold completes the look with seamless elegance, linking the watch to the wrist in the same secure, sculpted manner that has defined Rolex sports references for generations. The integrated design ensures comfort across long wearing hours while maintaining the polished-and-brushed surface interplay that Rolex executes with unmatched consistency.

At Bizak & Co., we offer this brand-new Rolex GMT-Master II ref. 116748SARU with full confidence in its authenticity. Whether you are a seasoned collector adding an ultra-premium GMT variant to your portfolio or a discerning buyer seeking a once-in-a-generation wrist companion, this reference delivers. Reach out to our team at bizakandco.com to discuss acquisition, pricing, and shipping — we are here to make your purchase of the 116748SARU as exceptional as the watch itself.
