Baselworld 2019: The Famous Rolex ‘Batman’ is Revived

There have been many discussions in the recent months, from speculations to allegedly official announcements about the famous Rolex ‘Batman’. The rumours were that the watch would be discontinued. However, since the Baselworld 2019, the fact that came to light is the watch is renewed from 116710BLNR to 126710BLNR, but not being discontinued. Indeed, the new Rolex ‘Batman’ features a new wristband as well as comes equipped with the latest Rolex generation calibre. Thus, before you head out to sell your Rolex watch or ‘sell Rolex’ to any potential watch buyers near you, continue reading below to find out all the new features of the revived ‘Batman’ model.

The Famous Model Still Lives On

One of the most popular and indeed, the most successful Rolex models is the Rolex GMT-Master II. Although it was speculated that the watch would no longer be produced, the fact is that it will merely receive an upgrade and will be available in its revamped form. However, the update brings the GMT-Master II with blue-black bezel into the new Rolex age. 

The new Rolex ‘Batman’ Reference 126710BLNR has everything that it needs to surpass the old reference 126710BLNR. The colour mixture of blue and black perfectly integrates with the multi-faceted Jubilee strap, thereby ensuring that the timepiece has the right proportion of fine details without looking overloaded. Moreover, it appears that the blue tone on the reference 126710BLNR is slightly more intense compared to the Rolex 116710BLNR. 

However, let’s see whether the new reference of Rolex GMT-Master II ‘Batman’ will be able to continue maintaining the success of its predecessor or not. 

The New Generation Calibre 3285

The new reference 126710BLNR is not expected to outdo its predecessor only in terms of appearance but also, in terms of technology. Rolex is updating the watch by equipping it with the latest generation Calibre 3285, replacing the earlier Calibre 3186. While the new movement now provides a power reserve of nearly 70hours, the new Chronergy escapement further refines the watch’s accuracy. The escapement is made up of nickel-phosphorus alloy, thereby making it impervious to magnetic influences. Thus, the fact is that the 126710BLNR was not discontinued but indeed, was revamped. The watch is merely now available with the newfangled and advanced update. 

Rolex is indeed the pioneer of luxury watches, known for its genuine innovations in watchmaking. While the brand utilises high-end technological elements, precious metals and gems to craft every watch, Rolex watches tend to retain their value with time. Thus, if you want to raise some instant cash, you can choose to sell your Rolex watch or ‘sell Rolex’ to any potential Rolex buyers in London or anywhere within the UK.
