I like the GMT because you can swap the insert depending on how you feel.
I have the 114060 too and I prefer its more 'indestructible' feel than the 1675. However it does sit bigger on the wrist.
Unfortunately I think I'm heading towards the same conclusion. I'm starting to think I'd like a 114060 for daily hammer, playing with looking after the baby, then. 16710 to add to the collection.
The good thing about 114060 is if you buy new (just like all moderns) you get to leave your own mark on it. Since you mentioned this was a potentially commemorative piece, it might be a good idea.
And the ceramic bezel also means, no worries on the insert at all. Which is usually a concern with older 4-digits.
The glidelock bracelet was also quite a shocker for me, such a comfortable and convenient bracelet to use. I think the 114060 has all the merits that come with a modern watch, while staying true to its roots (no date!!!)
All true and this is what drew me to a 6 digit ref initially.
I've never had the Rolex bug, but after trying several on over the last few weeks, the charm of the classic case is starting to call to me!
I made the mistake of searching for 16710 on C24 😲 Sweet lord there are thousands (as well as 1000s of ‘verified dealers’...by the looks of it there are more dealers in the world than collectors)...and quite a price spread too...
