We thought it might be easier for everyone if all the GMT-Master II models with black and blue bezels were simply called Rolex Batman watches, considering the various other names for Rolex GMT watches. However, since we originally published this article, Rolex has updated the stainless steel GMT-Master II and now offers the ref. 126710BLNR with a choice of Oyster or Silver Jubilee straps. Now that you can buy either bracelet style for the current model, is there any reason to have two different nicknames for the black and blue Rolex GMT-Master II?

To help distinguish between Rolex’s two different black and blue GMT replica luxury watches, collectors began referring to the Ref. 126710BLNR as the “Batgirl” – but now that the current stainless steel GMT-Master II model is available on both styles of bracelet, is it time to retire the “Batgirl” nickname from the history books?

Before we dive into this discussion, it’s important to remember that Rolex nicknames are completely informal, and in reality, there is no right or wrong answer. Both opinions can be presented as to the correct nickname for the black and blue Rolex GMT-Master II. So, to make sure our analysis is thorough, we invited some friends in the industry to weigh in on the ultimate Rolex Batman vs. Rolex Batgirl debate.
When it comes to the Rolex GMT-Master and GMT-Master II nicknames, the most common nicknames are usually based solely on the color of the insert itself. For example, all Rolex GMT watches with red and blue inserts have the same “Pepsi” nickname, regardless of the specific watch model, material, or even the age of the bezel insert itself.

In addition, the current production Rolex GMT-Master II ref. 126710BLNR is now available with either an Oyster or Silver Jubilee bracelet, which only complicates matters further. Since 2019, Rolex Batman best swiss watches replica are those with Oyster bracelets, while Rolex Batwoman models are those with Jubilee bracelets. However, now that you can get the GMT-Master II ref. 126710BLNR, wouldn’t it be easier if all the different black and blue GMT-Master II watches used the same “Rolex Batman” nickname?
Most of the other famous Rolex GMT monikers follow a similar format to Pepsi. Even outside of the GMT-Master II series, a nickname can often apply to several different Rolex models or configurations.
