difference between M and Z series

Hi everyone,

I am new here, and i just bought a new GMT Master II, 116710 with a M series numbers, but i saw some other new GMT Master II with a Z series numbers, so what's the difference ??

Also the model # of the new GMT II Master is 116710LN,
but why the warranty card has the model # 116710N ??

well let me start by saying welcome to the forum!! Secondly, you have purchased a very nice watch there my friend...!!

The difference is not much, mainly the CRB (the rolexrolexrolex writing) around the dial of the watch.

Again, welcome, and hope you stick around!!

Welcome to TRF!

If I am not mistaken, the CRB (chapter ring inscription) was also on all Z-series.

So basically there is no difference between the Z and M-series besides the series' letter.

I think he was refering to the 116710. With that model they all have the Rolex CRB.
