The blue part of the BLNR bezel turns into a  very dark blue almost black during sunset hours giving a nostalgic look to the entire watch. Love it!

Fully agreed with you, bro. Love the Batman.

great comparative review.  Although the Rolex is very nice, Im partial to the Colt GMT.  I just purchased the a32350 just like yours but silver dial.  Beautiful watch.
I recommend this robot trading forex for self-earnings

Thanks for providing detail pictures and also the differences with the LN.

That is a sweet gesture of you.
I hope i can give my dad one soon since he is a big fan of watches and hopefully time permits it that he would be able to wear it long

Batman is way better than the 2018 Pepsi IMO, the blue and black combination is just spot on, the new Pepsi is Purple-ish plus Pink-ish for me.

Agreed, Batman is more low-profile whereas the Pepsi is kind of shouting for attention.

While every one waits with bated breath what is Rolex going to announce at this year's Basel Fair, let's take a look at the 2014 released Rolex GMT Master II Ceramic BLNR.
With the help of a good friend, I got this piece for my dad's birthday last year.



Compared with the old GMT Master II Ceramic LN, only 3 differences can be found here in the BLNR.
1. The Bezel is now bi-colour. Top half black for "night", bottom half blue for "day"
2. "GMT Master II" font on the dial is printed in white instead of green.
3. The 24 hour GMT hand is blue instead of green.



The transition between the 2 colours.





No difference to the case profile.
Same with the previous iteration.
Trip lock crown but only 100m water resistance. Good enough i guess.



Polished centre links on the bracelet.
Used to differentiate a GMT from a Submariner from afar? hehehe



Clasp with easy-link extension.
Only +-5mm for the extension but comes in handy.
Gridelock is still the best though.



Comfortable on the wrist as with any Rolex.
With 3 subtle differences, is it worth the premium over the regular GMTII Ceramic LN?
I would say yes.
Alot of people feel that the Rolex GMT series of watches HAVE to come with a bi-colour bezel...
I mean they can produce in any 2 colour combo and I still reckon they will sell... lol

Seeing my dad wearing it day in day out, I can say that the blue/black of the bezel does not "POP" like you see in the pictures.
Mostly just looks all black. Only in certain angles can you see the slight blue hue...
Even sitting across a dining table, it still looks all black at times.
Unless you take a guy's hand and place it in front you, or inspect a watch more closely ( be careful though, I heard it's rude)... from a distance, it just looks black.

All in all, I think this is a good buy. My dad seems to enjoy it alot so that makes it a very good buy.

Amazing, I bought this watch last week, still thinking of sell or not sell it to flip some profit. It's a beast.

Nice GMT Rolex. I guess you are driving a BMW since the BMW logo and the bezel colors are matching.  ;D
