An excellent example of the iconic Rolex GMT-Master 16700. Hailing from circa 1993 this example of the GMT-Master reference 16700 is presented in fantastic condition and just back from a comprehensive service.
We love the Rolex GMT Master and think one should feature in every watch collection! The reference 16700 makes a great case for an ideal candidate. Launched in 1988, the GMT-Master ref. 16700 was the last reference of the GMT Master era. 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.
When compared to its predecessor, the ref. 16750, the 16700 benefits from a sapphire crystal, applied white gold indexes to the dial, and a new movement. This particular example is an earlier Tritium dial variant and is fitted with a ref. 78360 Oyster Bracelet.
Condition Report:
Presented in excellent overall condition. The dial and hands remain in fantastic condition. The case shows only minor scratches as commensurate with its age. The ref. 78360 bracelet remains tight and will fit wrists up to 19cm. The calibre 3175 has just received a comprehensive service and finally the watch also comes with its box, booklet and warranty card from Miltons.
The Rolex GMT 16700 - Last of the GMT-Master's

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
What payment options do you offer?
We accept payment by all leading credit and debit cards, ApplePay as well as bank transfer.
Do you offer financing?
Currently we don't offer financing but it’s something we're exploring.
Shipping & Returns
Can you ship an order to arrive on a certain day?
We can certainly try! We can request with our shipment partners for delivery on a certain day but ultimately the exact delivery date is subject to a number of factors outside our control.
How do I return a watch?
Simply let us know you want to send the watch back within the 14 return period and return it to us via Royal Mail Special Delivery. We’ll process your refund the same day we receive the watch back.
