Rolex Testimonee since 1968
Connection builders
The GMT-Master II is the watch of those who forge connections across boundaries, be they geographic, symbolic or cultural. From its earliest days, the model was chosen by exceptional individuals – aviators, astronauts and explorers – who helped shape its remarkable story. Their legacy is perpetuated by the Rolex Testimonees who wear the watch today.
Formula for success
Sir Jackie Stewart is one of the most emblematic figures in motor racing. His achievements make him one of the most celebrated Formula 1® drivers of the last 60 years. The Scottish champion took part in 99 Grand Prix races, winning 27, finishing 43 times on the podium and carrying off three world championship titles (1969, 1971 and 1973). Since 1969, he has remained very fond of his GMT-Master: “That’s the watch I probably wear more than anything else. I like the watch, it’s very nice.”

Garbiñe Muguruza
From Caracas to Madrid
Garbiñe Muguruza has a remarkable record of Grand Slam® titles, including wins at Roland-Garros in 2016 and The Championships, Wimbledon, in 2017, the year she became the World No. 1. In November 2021, she added a further triumph by winning the WTA Finals, the season-ending championship of the women’s tour. Talented at an early age, Muguruza was only five years old when her family decided to leave Venezuela and settle in Spain so that she could pursue her training. The GMT-Master II in 18 kt white gold with meteorite dial that she wears is a symbolic bridge across the Atlantic.

Tiger Woods
A champion’s stripes
In 2019, Tiger Woods captured his fifth Masters title at Augusta, 22 years after first winning the tournament. It was his 15th Major championship victory. In fact, he is the only golfer in the world to have won four consecutive Majors, a feat that has become known as the ‘Tiger Slam’. The champion has also helped increase the popularity of golf around the world. Woods wears a GMT-Master II in a yellow Rolesor version with a Cerachrom bezel insert in black ceramic.
