The Rolex GMT-Master Ref. 16700 represents the final evolution of the original intercontinental pilot's watch through its iconic 40mm stainless steel construction and legendary Pepsi bezel configuration. This exceptional timepiece embodies Rolex's collaboration with Pan American Airways, featuring the instantly recognizable red and blue aluminum bezel insert that has defined GMT watches since 1955. The 40mm Oystersteel case delivers refined proportions perfect for travel and daily wear, while the sapphire crystal represents modern advancement over earlier acrylic versions. This reference from the celebrated five-digit era marks the transition between vintage and modern GMT-Master design.
The reliable Calibre 3175 automatic movement with GMT complication powers this professional timepiece with approximately 48 hours power reserve, operating at 28,800 vibrations per hour through 31 jewels. The COSC-certified chronometer movement incorporates both quick-set hour hand and date functions, allowing independent adjustment of local time without disrupting the minute hand or GMT indication. The movement architecture ensures dependable dual-timezone tracking through proven Rolex engineering, maintaining the brand's reputation for professional-grade reliability essential for international travel.
The black dial features luminous hour markers providing excellent legibility, while the distinctive red GMT hand indicates 24-hour time against the bidirectional Pepsi bezel. The red and blue aluminum bezel insert displays characteristic vintage patina that enhances authenticity and collector appeal. The Oyster bracelet with solid end links demonstrates the refined construction of late five-digit era production. This preowned example arrives with original papers documenting its prestigious heritage. The Pepsi configuration represents one of horology's most iconic color schemes.
