About this watch

When it comes to luxury timepieces, few names resonate like Rolex. Among its illustrious lineup, the GMT-Master 16700 stands out as a beacon for those who appreciate precision, style, and functionality. This watch is not just a tool; it's a statement. Introduced in the 1950s, the GMT-Master was initially designed for pilots and global travelers. The ability to track multiple time zones made it an essential accessory for those who spent their lives in the skies. The 16700 model, produced from 1988 to 1999, represents an evolution of this iconic watch, marrying vintage charm with modern sophistication. With a diameter of 40 mm and a height of just 11 mm, the GMT-Master 16700 strikes a perfect balance between presence and comfort. It sits comfortably on the wrist, making it suitable for both casual and formal occasions. The rotating 24-hour bezel is not just for show; it serves a practical purpose for travelers. Whether you're jet-setting across time zones or simply keeping track of your home time, this feature is invaluable. The iconic Mercedes hands add a unique flair to the watch, making it unmistakably Rolex. The self-winding movement ensures that the watch stays powered as long as it's worn regularly. With a water resistance of up to 100 meters, the GMT-Master 16700 is not just for show. Whether you're caught in the rain or taking a dip in the pool, this watch is built to withstand the elements. The Rolex Caliber 3175 movement is robust and has proven its endurance over the years. The watch features a 48-hour power reserve and operates at a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour, ensuring accuracy and longevity.
