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 red and blue "Pepsi" insert, stainless steel case and bracelet, and black dial, this timepiece embodies all the iconic features of a GMT.
This reference 16710, sold on the 12th of March 2007 in Hong Kong, also features technical improvements such as a luminova dial and hands, solid endlinks bracelet, and no lug hole case. As we like to say, neo-vintage watches are often a good mix, offering the strength and precision of a modern watch while retaining the aesthetics and wearability of the vintages.
This particular piece is entirely original and in excellent condition. The Pepsi insert is a timeless GMT feature that perfectly complements the black dial, giving the timepiece excellent readability and a timeless look. The insert kept its vivid red color. The bracelet is the original 78790A and has no stretch. All links are present. A spare black insert is also delivered with the watch, although it was original delivered with the pepsi bezel mounted on it.
The watch comes with box and papers.
