Rolex GMT-Master II Sprite 126720VTNR – Full Set 10/2023
The Rolex GMT-Master II reference 126720VTNR, widely known among collectors as the “Sprite”, is one of the most distinctive modern references within the legendary GMT-Master II collection. Featuring the unusual left-hand crown configuration, a striking green and black Cerachrom bezel, and the robust 40mm Oystersteel case, this exceptional example dates from October 2023 and is offered as a Full Set through THEWATCHPROJECT Monaco.
The defining characteristic of the GMT-Master II Sprite is its unconventional crown positioned at 9 o'clock, with the date display and Cyclops lens also relocated to the left side of the dial. This configuration sets the 126720VTNR apart from traditional GMT-Master II references and has made it particularly recognizable among Rolex enthusiasts.
The classic 40mm Oystersteel case combines durability with the iconic proportions of Rolex's professional travel watch. Its polished and satin-finished surfaces provide the ideal setting for the distinctive two-tone bezel, creating a sporty yet sophisticated appearance.
The bidirectional green and black Cerachrom ceramic bezel features a 24-hour graduation and allows the wearer to track an additional time zone. The vibrant green section contrasts beautifully with the black ceramic and matching black dial, giving the Sprite its unmistakable visual identity.
Its elegant black dial features applied luminous hour markers, Mercedes-style hands, and a green GMT hand. The Chromalight display ensures excellent legibility, while the independently adjustable local hour hand makes the watch particularly practical for international travel.
Inside the case operates Rolex's automatic Calibre 3285, equipped with a dedicated GMT complication, the Chronergy escapement, and approximately 70 hours of power reserve. This movement combines precision and reliability with the functionality expected from a modern Rolex GMT-Master II.
This Rolex GMT-Master II 126720VTNR from October 2023 is supplied as a Full Set, including its original Rolex box and papers. Its distinctive left-hand design, green and black bezel, and complete documentation make it a particularly attractive example of the modern GMT-Master II collection.
Available through THEWATCHPROJECT Monaco, this Sprite represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a Rolex GMT-Master II 126720VTNR Left-Hand in Oystersteel, featuring the iconic green and black bezel and Full Set from 10/2023.
