Rolex GMT-Master II 'Coke' Ref. 16710 1989 w/ Box

$19,750.00 NZD

This Rolex GMT-Master II Ref. 16710, dating back to 1989 (L serial), is an excellent neo-vintage example of the GMT-Master II with the iconic red and black bezel nicknamed 'Coke'. Included with the sale of this watch is its original inner box, outer box and GMT-Master booklet.

In 1989 Rolex updated the GMT-Master II line with the Ref. 16710. This watch featured the new Caliber. 3185 (based on the Caliber. 3135). The most noticeable difference with the updated model was the slimmer case. This change in profile of the watch was welcomed by buyers, who had felt that the thickness of the previous ‘Fat Lady’s’ case was too much. The Ref. 16710 was a huge success and remained in the brand’s line up for 18 years until 2007.
