The 116710--it's got that blocky case and blinged-up bezel and bracelet. Or is it the 16710--no triplock. Or it's the 16610--only three hands.

Just the extra-thick lugs on the case, I guess.......the blinged-up Ceramic bezel and the bracelet with PCLs are standard on this model.

Back in Basic Training our Drill Sargent used to make one guy sing that Sesame St. song in front of formation if he saw one button wrong. We had until he finished to find it and fix it. (always resulted in 50 push ups for all - we were hopeless)

The older GMT-II has been fitted with a non-SEL bracelet, but it also says T<25 on the dial..........so unsure if that's a valid point.
