Description
In 2007, Rolex introduced the new GMT Master II with ceramic bezel, green 24 hours hand, Triplock crown, maxi dial and a significantly more massive stainless steel case. While the previous model GMT II was already a classic even before its discontinuance, the reference 116710 is a smash hit.

The steel case measures 40mm diameter by 12mm thick. While the diameter is the same as the previous model, the lugs are much thicker. The bezel is also more massive and features a ceramic insert, which is very scratch resistant and whose color will not fade. The bezel turns in both directions. Rolex opted, wisely, to us the huge Triplock crown for the new GMT. Crystal is sapphire. Case is water resistant to 100 meters.

Movement is the automatic winding Rolex Caliber 3186 with 31 jewels. This movement is a C.O.S.C. Certified Chronometer.

Dial is black with large applied luminous hour markers and luminous hands. The ‘GMT Master II’ text, along with the 24 hours hand, is green.

The GMT Master II allows the wearer to track GMT or UTC 24 hour time along with local 12 hour time. The local 12 hour hand is independently settable from the 24 hour hand, and the bezel turns to allow the tracking of a third timezone if the wearer chooses. It is for this flexibility and Rolex’s famous durability and accurate timekeeping, that the GMT has been the professional pilots’ and astronauts’ choice of watches for 50 years.

Bracelet is Rolex Oyster and it has its full links.
