My advice simply learn the correct reference numbers for Rolex watches.

Green archer? Never heard that nickname before. Do you mean the 126720VTNR, sometimes referred to as the Sprite?

No worse a stupid name than Sprite. Sprite soda colors are not even the same.

Are you talking about the 116710LN ? Or the 126720VTNR ? Both of these references have green in them. Might want to clarify what exactly what you want if you want some help with it.

Wrong forum. The watch you are looking for is a Seiko and it’s not a GMT.

Maybe he's talking about the 116710LN which has a "green arrow" 24 hour hand? Just a guess. I've never heard of a "GMT Master Green Archer."

Exactly. Only response needed. No shortage of these random “dumb” watch posts by newbies lately.

Green Archer, Sprite, Batman, Starbucks, Batgirl..... SMH, where do people come up with these names.

That said, OP is from the Philippines; Green Archers is the name of a very popular baseball team--that's prob where the name came from

I kind of like the name green archer. It fits with this reference being that it has a green gmt hand. I’ve never heard it called that before. These can be had fairly inexpensively these days as the market has cooled a bit on them. I might know someone who can help you in Manila, one of my neighbors has a home there. I’ll ask him

Even if we knew what a "green archer" was, how does OP expect us to help again? Point them to a grey dealer?

Yes, indeed.

It could also be a 116713?
