1996 Rolex GMT-Master II “Coke” – Ref. 16710 | Mint Vintage Condition

This Rolex GMT-Master II “Coke” (Ref. 16710), produced in 1996, stands out as a highly collectible yet perfectly wearable vintage sports watch. Named for its bold black and red aluminum bezel insert, the "Coke" GMT offers a distinct look that’s both iconic and less common than its “Pepsi” counterpart — making it a favorite among discerning collectors.

Housed in a classic 40mm stainless steel case, this example remains in mint vintage condition, showing minimal signs of wear and preserving its sharp lines, original dial, and luminous markers. The black dial features crisp white text, Mercedes-style hands, and the signature red 24-hour hand for dual time zone functionality.

Powered by the reliable Rolex Caliber 3185 automatic movement, this GMT delivers chronometer-certified precision with a 50-hour power reserve. The watch retains its original stainless steel Oyster bracelet and folding clasp, offering everyday comfort while preserving its vintage authenticity.
