Has Rolex Batman been discontinued? Rolex did discontinue the original Batman GMT model. 116710BLNR, but did so only to make room for the new GMT-Master II ref. 126710 was also sold with the famous Dark Knight black and blue ceramic bezel insert. The Batman GMT-Master II ref. 126710BLNR is still in production.
Rolex is notorious for making only relatively minor changes to its existing lineup. After seeing the same shade for decades, it is exciting to see a new GMT bezel colorway in two-tone ceramic for the first time ever. Perhaps, this explains its popularity.
Rolex Cola has a special place in the history of the Rolex GMT-Master II. When replica Rolex launched its collection with the new stand-alone GMT hand, it only sold the Coke bezel in red and black, which was also a new color scheme at the time. In addition, as a discontinued Rolex, the Coke GMT-Master II was very collectible, which was enough to win the hearts of the most seasoned luxury replica watch enthusiasts.
Why did Rolex discontinue the black GMT?
It is somewhat surprising that fake Rolex no longer produces the GMT-Master II with its monochrome black bezel. The catalog now only offers the bezel in two colors. For decades, the black bezel has been a regular choice for Ref. 16710 and even its predecessor, Ref. 116710. It is possible to buy a GMT-Master II with an all-black aluminum or ceramic bezel. However, the secondary market is your only option for now. It’s hard to say why Rolex discontinued specific models, and only time will tell if Rolex brings the all-black bezel option back into their lineup.
