Rolex GMT Master II “Sprite” 40mm 126720VTNR (2025)

The Rolex Oyster Perpetual GMT-Master II Ref. 126720VTNR, affectionately nicknamed the “Sprite” by collectors, is one of the most innovative and conversation-starting models in the modern Rolex Professional collection. Introduced in 2022, it marked a historic first for Rolex as the brand’s inaugural serial-production GMT-Master II designed with a left-hand crown configuration, positioning both the winding crown and date aperture on the left side of the case.
Crafted from Oystersteel, the watch features the GMT-Master II’s iconic 40 mm Oyster case and is distinguished by its striking green and black Cerachrom ceramic bezel, a color combination exclusive to this reference. The bi-directional 24-hour bezel works in conjunction with the independently adjustable GMT hand, allowing the wearer to track multiple time zones with exceptional ease—a hallmark of the GMT-Master lineage since its introduction. At its heart is the Rolex Calibre 3285, a Manufacture automatic movement featuring the Chronergy escapement, Parachrom hairspring, and approximately 70 hours of power reserve.  This 2026 example is fitted to the highly sought-after Jubilee bracelet. The combination of the left-hand configuration and Jubilee bracelet has become particularly desirable among enthusiasts, making it one of the most recognizable modern Rolex sports watches.

The “Sprite” has quickly established itself as one of the most collectible GMT-Master II references of the ceramic era. Its unconventional layout, exclusive bezel color, and limited left-handed configuration ensure it remains one of the most distinctive and sought-after Rolex sports watches in current production. Collectors consistently cite its unique design and practicality as reasons for its popularity.
