Okay, so I’ve been messing around with watches for a while now, and I gotta say, this latest project got me pretty excited. I decided to get my hands on a high imitation Rolex GMT-Master II, but not just any version—the left-handed one. Yeah, you heard that right, the crown’s on the other side. It’s a pretty cool twist on the classic style.
First off, I started digging around to see what’s up with these left-handed models. Turns out, they’re not super common, which is part of the appeal, right? I mean, I like the GMT-Master because it’s tough and can take a beating. Plus, it’s a Rolex, so you know, it’s got that status thing going on.
So, I went hunting for the best high imitation I could find. This took a while, checking out different makers, comparing what they offered. You gotta be careful with these things, not all imitations are created equal, that’s for sure. Finally found one that looked promising—good materials, solid movement, and that left-handed setup I was after.
When the watch finally arrived, I was like a kid on Christmas morning. Ripped that package open and there it was. First impression? Not bad, not bad at all. The weight felt right, and the details were surprisingly good. I spent a good hour just examining it, turning it over in my hands, checking out the bezel, the cyclops, all that good stuff.
- Getting it on my wrist: Adjusting the bracelet was the next step. It’s a bit fiddly, but I’ve done it enough times that it wasn’t a big deal. Got it sized just right, and it felt comfortable, like it belonged there.
- Playing with the features: This is where the fun really began. I started setting the time, messing with the GMT hand. It’s cool how you can track a second time zone with that thing. I’ve got buddies overseas, so it’s actually pretty useful.
- Wearing it out: Of course, I had to take it out for a spin. Wore it to work, to the bar, just around town. Got a few compliments, a few curious stares. Most people didn’t even notice it was left-handed until I pointed it out.
Conclusion of This Imitation
All in all, I’m pretty stoked with this high imitation Rolex GMT-Master II left-handed version. It’s a fun piece to wear, and it’s definitely a conversation starter. It is kind of satisfying to have something that looks and feels like the real deal, but without the crazy price tag. I guess a good high imitation is worth something, especially if you appreciate the design and the mechanics of these watches. So it is a good watch.
