Good morning everyone...

I know this particular GMT is now discontinued.
Does anyone know when it went out of production and if anyone was able to locate a brand new one from an AD recently?

I think I want one of these as well

rob · 16 March 2008, 03:44 AM

Ad's won't sell online but most still have them, with the new pricing. Davidson and Litch still has some. Call 1.925.935.0940(Walnut Creek CA.) ask for Jeremiah (great guy). They polish your bracelet once a year for the lifetime of your watch. That's why I bought through them.

n9zez · 16 March 2008, 03:45 AM

My AD has that exact one still in the case. Message me if you want the info.

It began being phased out as soon as the new SS GMT IIc was introduced at the Basel Fair in April 2007.

frostie · 16 March 2008, 08:01 AM

Well guess what guys

The AD here in thessaloniki the city that live in brought a new M serial GMT II 16710 with a CRB

WOW! I think it's safe to say that you might be the first person on TRF to see this watch!

Frostie, is it like this one that I copied from another thread here?
I was asking but nobody could say if it is a photoshop on real...

This one looks like a photoshop though, unless if it is a bad pic ... but that's how the new ceramic pepsi will be if they finally make one.

M series with the old aluminium bezel ? I thought it was discontinued

My datejust is M series and I bought it only 3 months ago...

and I thought the CRB that you wrote was the CeRamic Bezel ... no?

I thought that it was discontinued too that's why i was surprised

Actually there is a fellow member here that owns an M serial GMT 16710 old style

I was not talking about the ceramic GMT

frostie · 16 March 2008, 08:09 AM

I think that there is a guy here on TRF that owns a 16710 m serial

I can't remember his name though

I'll try to see if i can photograph the watch from the display window

But I don't think it has the CRB like the one you saw.

New 16710s are still available at some ADs. Mine has one (or at least did a few days ago).

The one you show isn't new. It's either a luminova dialed watch or had a service replacement as noted by "SWISS" at 6 o'clock.

I don't have the money my friend besides that i am happy with my ceramic GMT

CPTL · 16 March 2008, 11:18 PM

The M's are out there. Remember the 4 16710s on TZ with the "stick dial" (ll instead of II) that were fitted with the 3186? Those were all M-serials.

The M should have the RBR, as all but the SD do. Should also have the 3186 movement with the parachrom hairspring--which will make it quite a transition piece, somewhat rare, and possibly valuable someday.

0luke1 · 17 March 2008, 03:43 AM

I have a Pepsi M series 16710 purchased a few months ago. It has the stick dial and came with a GMTc owner's manual! The bezel is bi-directional and clicks in small increments.

Mine does not have CRB.

That's really interesting

Do you think that it might have the new hairspring too? What's the accuracy?

Road Warrior · 17 March 2008, 07:13 AM

My AD called me last week & said he had just gotten 2 more in. He was very surprised. He thought like most of us did....that Rolex had stopped shipping old GMT II's. He said he was told there would be some available until probably mid 2008. He offered me one @ the old price less 10%.
