Old pics of my A-serial GMT-Master ref. 16700. The last serial range of the last GMT-Master model Rolex made. After the 16700 was discontinued, only the GMT-Master II model would remain in the catalog starting with ref. 16760, 16710, and finally the current 116710 LN and 116710 BLNR.



Different Shirt, Same Watch...

 

Pepsi...!!!!....

 

I was in North Wildwood NJ this past summer and noticed the owner of a hot dog joint wearing a vintage GMT Pepsi. I love seeing folks wearing those watches. I really like the new black and blue model as well. One day maybe....

 

Maui's Hot Dogs?

 

Gotta love a Pepsi, even the odd and old beater

 

Here's the scarce "Radial dial" (mini plot) 1675 I bought from Eric Ku


and a 16750 I bought from Jacek

 

pitpro - great photos. the detail you picked up in second one is incredible.

 

There are two Rolex watches often forgotten today. The 16700 and the 16550. Two of my favorite references

 

Is that the "coke" model?

 

Blue and black called "batman" model. Coke model is red and black bezel

 

The color combination of the bezel on this gmt had always been one of my favorites

 

Solid black is also very cool

 

For no good reason, and taken with my phone, here is the contemporary blue black I bought just last week.
So far I like it a lot. Although the blue 24 hour indicator is often hiding from my eyes. I wish it were red.

 

that's how new it is strangely it doesn't bother me

 

Been eyeballing this for some time now but a lot of folks are saying that about the BLNR. As such, I'm rethinking a GMT II Coke instead...

 

well I'm pragmatic. The double zone function is fun but if I'm honest with myself, if I want to know what time it is back home or in a 3rd zone, I'm gonna use my phone. I bet that 95% of GMT IIs are not set correctly for GMT, and half of them are showing the wrong date too

 

that's not any old beater! looks like a nice gilt 1675 to me! nice... love that bezel too

 

nice... very nice!
Maybe Rolex will release the black and red ceramic again? I believe red / orange ceramic are hard to manufacture....
