1990 Rolex GMT-Master II 16710 - Stainless Steel Coke Bezel

Trade In
Details
The Last Of The Classic GMTs
The reference 16710 is a cornerstone of Rolex collecting. It represents the final generation of the classic GMT-Master II, retaining the traditional case proportions and aluminum bezel insert that defined the model for decades. This 1990 example, with its iconic red and black 'Coke' bezel, sits right in the sweet spot of the reference's long production run. The tritium dial marks it as a product of its era, offering a warmth that modern luminous material cannot replicate.
A Strong Dial On A Robust Bracelet
This watch pairs the best of two periods. The original tritium dial is in great shape, showing the characteristic "SWISS-T<25" signature that collectors seek out from this era. The watch is fitted to a later 1999 'X'-stamp Oyster bracelet, which offers a more solid and substantial feel on the wrist than the bracelet it would have originally been sold on. This combination delivers vintage character with a touch more modern security and presence.
A Well Kept Neo-Vintage Example
The watch presents in good overall condition. The dial is great, and the crystal is clean. The case has been lightly touched up in the past but retains a strong profile. Its 'Coke' bezel insert is clean, and the later-period steel Oyster bracelet is in very good shape. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.
The Perfect Daily Driver
This GMT-Master II is for the person who wants a robust, reliable travel watch with genuine vintage soul. The Coke bezel is versatile, pairing as easily with a suit as it does with a t-shirt. It has the visual appeal of a classic Rolex tool watch without the fragility or premium of much older examples. It is a watch that has earned its place as one of the most functional and recognizable designs ever created.
