Notes: The modern Rolex GMT Master II ref. 116710 was met with great acclaim when it hit the market in 2013. Offered in an Oystersteel finish and equipped with a Cerachrom bezel and maxi dial topped with a Chromalight luminous display, the men's Rolex ref. 116710 continues to gain momentum. An intricate movement beats within the case, offering an independent 24-hour hand. This feature allows the wearer to adjust the dedicated hand on the dial without disturbing the current time, thus providing two readings via the dial in addition to the 24-hour bezel. Originally developed as a pilot's watch, the used Rolex GMT Master II is the ultimate travel companion.
Mechanism: Calibre 3186 is a self-winding mechanical movement entirely developed and manufactured by Rolex. In
addition to the conventional hour, minute and seconds hands, it features a 24-hour hand to display a second time zone.
Like all Rolex Perpetual movements, the 3186 is a certified Swiss chronometer, a designation reserved for high-precision watches that have successfully passed the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC) tests. The 3186 is equipped with a Parachrom hairspring, offering greater resistance to shocks and to temperature variations. Its architecture, in common with all Oyster watch movements, makes it singularly reliable.

Family Notes: Although the Rolex GMT-Master was designed essentially for professional use, its combination of peerless functionality and rugged good looks has attracted a wider travelling public. As well as appreciating its ability to display different time zones, these travellers admire the robustness and versatile appearance that make the GMT-Master eminently suitable for globetrotting and, indeed, for any occasion.
