About the Movement
Calibre 3186 is a self-winding mechanical movement entirely developed and manufactured by Rolex. In addition to the conventional hour, minute and seconds hands, it features a 24-hour hand to display a second time zone. Like all Rolex Perpetual movements, the 3186 is a certified Swiss chronometer, a designation reserved for high-precision watches that have successfully passed the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC) tests. The 3186 is equipped with a Parachrom hairspring, offering greater resistance to shocks and to temperature variations. Its architecture, in common with all Oyster watch movements, makes it singularly reliable.
About the Family
The GMT-Master was developed in 1955 in collaboration with Pan American World Airways for their pilots who needed to track multiple time zones as commercial transatlantic flight became routine. The solution — a rotating 24-hour bezel combined with an additional GMT hand — allowed pilots to read home time, local time, and a third time zone simultaneously. The bicolour bezel inserts that distinguish the GMT-Master's variants — 'Pepsi' (blue and red), 'Batman' (blue and black), 'Coke' (black and red), 'Root Beer' (brown and gold) — have become some of the most recognisable nicknames in the watch collecting community. The GMT-Master II, which allows independent setting of the local hour hand, remains one of Rolex's most coveted professional models.
