Description
The Rolex GMT-Master II (Ref. 16710) from the year 2003 in the condition "sealed" (New Old Stock - NOS) is today an absolute rarity for collectors.
Case: During this period (Y- or F-series), the transition to cases without drilled lugs ("no holes") took place. A 2003 model therefore appears somewhat more modern and cleaner.
Dial: It is a Super-Luminova dial (marked with "Swiss Made" at 6 o'clock), which unlike tritium no longer yellows but remains pure white and glows green.
Movement: The reliable Caliber 3185 with independently adjustable hour hand for the second time zone.
Original condition: The watch still has all factory protective films from 2003 (green seal sticker on the case back, transparent side protective films).
Unworn: It has never been worn on the wrist, the bracelet has no "stretch" and the edges are razor-sharp.
Collector's value: The "sealed" status massively increases the price. Such watches are often kept as investment pieces in a safe, as removing any of the films would immediately reduce the market value by several thousand euros.
The 16710 was delivered with three inserts:
Pepsi (Blue/Red) – The most sought after.
Coke (Black/Red).
Black (Single color).
Conclusion: A 16710 from 2003 in sealed condition is a "time capsule." It is the last classic GMT-Master generation before the introduction of the massive Ceramic models and embodies for many the perfect proportions.
