Okay, folks, gather ’round. Today, I’m gonna tell you about my little adventure with a high imitation Rolex GMT-Master II, the left-handed version. Yeah, you heard that right, a lefty Rolex! Now, I ain’t no millionaire, but I do appreciate a good-looking watch, and let me tell you, this one caught my eye.
It all started when my grandson, a lefty himself, showed me this Rolex GMT-Master II. “Grandpa,” he said, “check out this cool watch! It’s made for us southpaws.” I took a look, and I gotta admit, it was a beauty. But a real Rolex? That’s way out of my league.
So, I started digging around, just like I always do. I’m not one to rush into things, you know? My grandson, he showed me where to look for these Rolex GMT-Master II left-handed quotes. Said some folks sell ’em online, but you gotta be careful. Some of ’em are no good. Found a few forums, read some reviews, the whole nine yards. I even stumbled upon this one website, talked about how these imitation watches are getting better and better. “High imitation,” they called it. I mean this thing, it’s a classic Rolex style. They mentioned a specific model, the ref. 126710BLRO, the “Pepsi” they called it, a real hot item, apparently. And these high imitation makers, they’ve been at it for decades, getting better each time.
But this left-handed version, the “Destro,” as some call it, that was new to me. It’s got the same 40mm case, about 11.90mm thick, and a lug-to-lug of around 48mm. They make it with this Oystersteel, 904L steel, whatever that means, sounds tough. It’s water-resistant up to 100m, got a sapphire crystal with some AR coating, and that little magnifier over the date, they call it a cyclops.
Now, I ain’t gonna lie, the idea of owning a watch that looks like a Rolex, especially one made for lefties, was tempting. After all, my grandson would probably like one of these. After a lot of searching, I found a seller that seemed legit. Good reviews, lots of pictures, the whole deal. The price was right, a fraction of what a real Rolex would cost. So, I took the plunge.
A few weeks later, the package arrived. I opened it up, and there it was. This high imitation Rolex GMT-Master II, left-handed version. And let me tell you, it looked good. Really good. I mean if you want a good lookin’ watch without spendin’ all your money, this is it. The weight, the feel, the details, it was all there. I wore it around, showed it to a few friends, even my grandson was impressed.
Now, I know what you’re thinking. “It’s a fake, old man!” And yeah, you’re right. It ain’t a real Rolex. But it’s a darn good imitation. And for someone like me, who just wants a nice-looking watch without breaking the bank, it’s perfect. Plus, it’s a conversation starter, especially with other lefties. I get asked all the time about it.

And hey, if you’re a lefty looking for a stylish watch that won’t cost you an arm and a leg, maybe you should check one out. Just remember what your grandma always said, “If it looks too good to be true, it probably is.” But sometimes, just sometimes, it’s worth taking a chance.
So if you are looking for a high imitation Rolex GMT-Master II, and you are a lefty, this might be your lucky day. I’m happy with this thing. It looks great, and I didn’t have to sell my car to get it. I figure if you’re looking for a nice watch but don’t want to spend a bunch of cash, you should give it a try.
