Watches & Wonders 2024 launch on both Oyster (m126710grnr-0001) and Jubilee (m126710grnr-0002) from day one. Launch retail was USD 10,700 on Oyster and USD 10,900 on Jubilee, per Fratello and Monochrome. The reference remains in the current Rolex catalogue.

The GRNR family rollout sequence: 126719GRNR (white gold) and [[Reference:126713GRNR|126713GRNR]] (Rolesor) at Watches & Wonders 2023, then the steel [[Reference:126710GRNR|126710GRNR]] at Watches & Wonders 2024. ~~Official Watches and~~ Fratello ~~both capture~~ the two-stage timing; the yellow gold [[Reference:126718GRNR|126718GRNR]] sits alongside the other precious-metal variants in the same family.

The bezel is the reference’s defining feature. Grey-and-black two-colour Cerachrom with platinum-PVD numerals. The grey half of the insert carries a noticeably different optical character from a painted or aluminum grey; it reads as near-black in indoor light and shifts toward warm grey in direct sun. Time+Tide’s Sydney-sunlight review captures the bezel behaviour most directly; Monochrome’s opinion piece builds the “photographs badly, wears well” argument around the same optical property.

Rolex describes the grey ceramic colouration as ''gris noir'' — the French-language source of the GRNR code~~. Watchfinder reads it literally as grey-black in its coverage~~. Collectors who encounter the reference code in isolation often read GRNR as green-related; the correct parsing is GR = ''gris'', NR = ''noir''.

== Bracelets, end links, clasps, and packaging notes ==

Both bracelets launched together. The Oyster -0001 fits a standard three-link Oyster with Oysterlock and Easylink. The Jubilee -0002 fits the five-link Jubilee with matching clasp furniture. SJX documents both at launch; Fratello’s Rolesor-vs-steel comparison adds that ~~Jubilee remains exclusive to the precious-metal siblings only on the GRNR in Rolesor and gold configurations —~~ the steel [[Reference:126710GRNR|126710GRNR]] is one of the non-precious-metal GMT-Master II references offered on Jubilee from the factory.

=== Nickname branches: “Bruce Wayne” and “Ghost” ===

Two nicknames circulate in enthusiast press. “Bruce Wayne” reads the watch as the off-duty or undercover version of the Batman — Bruce Wayne being Batman’s alter ego — and aBlogtoWatch, Monochrome~~, and Official Watches all~~ use the name. “Ghost” reads the grey bezel as the visual disappearance of the Batman’s blue half into near-invisibility; the name is less universal but appears in enthusiast coverage and collector discussion. Both names describe the same reference.
