This high-tech material is virtually scratchproof and keeps its vibrant colours over time. Rolex broke new ground in 2013 when it introduced its first two-colour, single-piece ceramic bezel insert \u2013 blue on one half and black on the other. One year later, the brand released a Cerachrom insert in red and blue \u2013 the GMT-Master\u2019s original colours. It carried out pioneering research to develop a red ceramic corresponding to its aesthetic and quality criteria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over the years, Rolex presented other colour combinations: brown and black in 2018, green and black in 2022 \u2013 on a version with the crown and crown guard on the left side of the case and the date display at 9 o\u2019clock \u2013 and grey and black in 2023. In 2025, Rolex released its first-ever ceramic dial on the GMT-Master II, in the same shade of green as the lower half of the two-colour green and black Cerachrom bezel insert that frames the watch face.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-getwid-section alignfull alignfull\"><div class=\"wp-block-getwid-section__wrapper\"><div class=\"wp-block-getwid-section__inner-wrapper\"><div class=\"wp-block-getwid-section__background-holder\"><div class=\"wp-block-getwid-section__background has-background\" style=\"background-color:#f4efeb\"><\/div><div class=\"wp-block-getwid-section__foreground\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wp-block-getwid-section__content\"><div class=\"wp-block-getwid-section__inner-content\">\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<section class=\"ctnimg  text-center\">\r\n    <div class=\"container \">\r\n      \r\n            <img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/walkerthejeweller.com\/rolex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/rolex-greenseal-landscape-5.jpg\" class=\"dimg lazyload\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2000px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2000\/1184;\">\r\n            <img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/walkerthejeweller.com\/rolex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/rolex-greenseal-portrait-5.jpg\" class=\"mimg lazyload\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1170px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1170\/1292;\">\r\n\r\n             <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n\r\n<!-- <section class=\"heroimage\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/walkerthejeweller.com\/rolex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/rolex-greenseal-landscape-5.jpg\" class=\"dimg w-100 lazyload\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2000px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2000\/1184;\">\r\n   <img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/walkerthejeweller.com\/rolex\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/rolex-greenseal-portrait-5.jpg\" class=\"mimg w-100 lazyload\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1170px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1170\/1292;\">\r\n<\/section>\r\n -->\r\n\n\n\r\n\r\n<!-- TEXT HEADING COMPONENT -->\r\n\r\n\r\n<section class=\"midtext \">\r\n    <div class=\"container\">\r\n        <div class=\"row\">\r\n            <div class=\"col-md-8 offset-md-2\">\r\n                <div class=\"acf-innerblocks-container\">\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong>Superlative Chronometer certification<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like all Rolex watches, the GMT-Master II is covered by the Superlative Chronometer certification.
