Good Evening

I've had my GMT Master blue and red ss black face for 11 years (and love it)
how do i find out the date of manfacture i think it 86 but its got 16710 on the side of the box?

What is the GMT worth its in excellent condition (slight scratch on the glass).

Thank You for any help.

This Site is the kiddy!!!!!!!!!!!

A 16710 is a MASTER II. 1986 would be a 16750 if a MASTER series. Eleven years makes it a 97 vintage which is in the 16700 range.

Couple things---pop the bracelet off and give the first three of the serial number . We can get pretty close then.

Does your watch have an acryllic crystal (16750) or sapphire (16700). A pic would tell a lot.

I bought it second hand so it older than 11yrs.

It may not be the right box?

The calender in the box it dated 86/ 87.Its got acryllic crystal.

Is it hard to get the bracelet off?

Have to go out now but will get you some pics.

Thanks For the help Mike Cheers

Sounds like a latter 16750. Have a gloss dial with WG surrounds? Like this,

Bracelet is easy to pop off. I like to use a toothpick. Just depress the springbars through the lug holes.

I LOVE the look of a gloss dial with the white gold!

I should add that one side will yeild the serial number and the other the reference number.

If you want to date a GMT you need a bottle of Pinot Nor and a Barry White album.

Sorry, Paul. I couldn't help myself. Actually, Bubba made me do it!

Sounds like you have a classic there. We'd love to see pics.

16710 and GMT 16700 were both available throughout the 90's. GMT II 16760 was available until late 1980's when it was replaced by the 16710. If you have a 90's GMT II it is a 16710, or if it is a GMT it is a 16700. 16750 GMT was available until the late 80's which was replaced by the 16700.
