Description: Rolex GMT-Master 16710
Pre-owned Rolex GMT-Master ref 16710 (2001 – 2002) was the second iteration of the series when it came to market in the late 1980s. It replaced the inaugural ref. 16760 and brought with it a sleeker movement and case. This update was important because when the GMT Master II debuted alongside ref. 16760, it required a thicker case to accommodate the then-new independent GMT hand. By refining this feature, ref. 16710 became a staple of the Rolex portfolio, only bowing out in the 2000s to make way for the first ceramic bezel models. The iconic pilot watch sports a black bezel to match the dial, a design set many collectors are after. Produced in the early 2000s, this example also features Super-LumiNova and a high-beat movement with hacking seconds and a Quickset date.
