Rolex GMT-Master II "Sprite"

This Rolex GMT-Master II reference 126720VTNR, known among collectors as the “Sprite”, is presented in excellent condition and comes complete with its full set of box and papers. Purchased in 2025, it represents one of the most distinctive modern GMT-Master configurations ever released by Rolex.

The 40 mm Oyster case is crafted from corrosion-resistant Oystersteel, finished with a blend of brushed and polished surfaces. It features a left-hand crown design — the first in the GMT-Master’s history — making it a standout model within the collection. Water resistance is rated to 100 metres, supported by the Triplock screw-down crown and scratch-resistant sapphire crystal.

The highlight of this model is its two-tone Cerachrom bezel, combining green and black ceramic for a bold, contemporary look. The engraved 24-hour numerals are coated in platinum, while the bidirectional rotation allows simultaneous tracking of two time zones via the distinctive green 24-hour hand.

The black lacquer dial features luminous Chromalight hour markers and Mercedes-style hands, offering crisp legibility in all lighting conditions. The Cyclops lens at 9 o’clock — repositioned for the left-hand configuration — magnifies the date for easy reading.

Inside beats the Rolex calibre 3285, a self-winding Superlative Chronometer movement with a 70-hour power reserve. It features Rolex’s Chronergy escapement and Parachrom hairspring, ensuring exceptional efficiency, precision, and resistance to magnetism.

This example is fitted with the Oyster bracelet, a solid-link three-piece design crafted in Oystersteel. It secures with the Oysterlock safety clasp and features the Easylink extension system for quick comfort adjustment.

The Rolex GMT-Master II “Sprite” 126720VTNR remains one of the most unique and technically impressive models in the modern collection. This 2025 full-set example, presented in excellent condition, combines Rolex’s legendary functionality with a daring and unmistakable design.
