A lovely example of the Rolex GMT-Master 16700 from circa 1999. This example features the sought after "Swiss only" dial and is presented in excellent condition throughout.
The Swiss only dial of the 16700 was only produced for one year and has become somewhat of a collectors item among fans of the GMT-Master reference 16700.
Launched in 1988, the GMT-Master ref. 16700 is a fascinating watch in its own right, representing somewhat of a transitional reference between vintage and modern iterations of the GMT model line.
Whilst the GMT-Master II ref. 16760 was launched 5 years prior, it wasn't until the discontinuation of the GMT-Master II ref. 16700 that the GMT-Master II would become Rolex’s flagship pilot’s watch and last of the GMT Master era.
When compared to its predecessor, the ref. 16750, the 16700 benefited from a sapphire crystal, applied white gold indexes to the dial, and a new movement.
Condition Report
Presented in excellent overall condition. The dial and hands remain in excellent condition. The bezel has started to fade giving a lovely feel to the watch. Whilst the case shows some minor scratches it remains in good shape. The ref. 78360 bracelet remains tight and will fit wrists up to 19cm. The calibre 3175 automatic movement previously received a comprehensive service and is running well. Finally the watch comes with its original box.

The Watches
Are all watches authenticated?
All our watches pass through a double authentication process to insure their authenticity. We also provide detailed photos of the watch from all angles to allow you to undertake your own anlysis. Finally as with everything, if you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out to our friendly team
What if something goes wrong with the watch
Whilst all our watches are fully serviced before sale, if something does go wrong, we'll repair it for free as part of our 1 year warranty
Do watches come with original box and papers?
It depends on the individual watch. You can see details under "The Basics" heading on this page. For the majority of vintage watches their original box and papers have been lost to time. Whilst they are nice to have, it’s important to note that “box and papers” DO NOT authenticate a watch despite what many in our trade say. It’s also important to realise alot of sellers (including some of the most well known in the UK) put together full sets of box, papers, hang tags etc by buying blank paperwork and boxes in the secondary market. This is a very regrettable, but unfortunately common occurrence in the trade but something we will never do!
How do I know it will fit?
For metal bracelets we provide the size it will currently fit in the description section of this page. If this measurement is too large or too small we are able to assist in either adding or removing links. We also offer this service, post service on a at-cost basis (i.e. we don't add a margin).
Can you change the strap?
Absolutely! If you don't like the current strap, let us know and we'll change it for free! We maintain a broad selection of styles and can also source straps to your specification free of charge.
Can you source something similar?
Absolutely! If its not quite what you’re looking for just get in touch and we can source one with our Free, No Obligation sourcing service. You can contact us on phone, live chat or simply submit the details of what you’re looking for on our “Find a Watch” page.
Payment

Shipping & Returns
