about the watch
Designed to display the time in two time zones simultaneously during intercontinental flights, the Rolex GMT Master 16710 is a legendary pilot's watch known beyond watch enthusiasts for its timeless design and historical significance. With its stainless steel case and bracelet, and black dial this timepiece embodies all the iconic features of a GMT, while adding a touch of originality with its red and black "Coke" insert, which was only produced for the reference 16710.
This reference 16710 also features technical improvements such as a luminova dial and hands, which is indicated by the "Swiss Made" marking at 6 o'clock. As we like to say, neo-vintage watches are often the perfect mix, offering the strength and precision of a modern watch while retaining the aesthetics and wearing feels of the vintages.
This particular piece is entirely original and in excellent condition. It was sold in 2001 in Singapore. It is a perfect addition and a fantastic start to any collection of Rolex sports models. The Coke insert is less common than the Pepsi insert and appeals to collectors and those looking for something a little more original. The watch is delivered with its original set.
The case has a lot of material and sharp edges. The buckle and bracelet are in excellent condition too.
The bracelet is the original Oyster bracelet, reference 78790. It has no stretch.
The watch comes with its original box and outer box, guarantee papers, GMT booklet, a translated Rolex booklet, and the green and red tags.
The movement is the original caliber 3185, which runs perfectly well.
