Additional Details
The Rolex 16700 Pepsi is a rare and iconic timepiece that holds a special place in the history of Rolex and the GMT-Master collection. Released in the 1989 and discontinued in 1999, this 10 year production model marks the final evolution of the original GMT-Master design before the introduction of the GMT-Master II.
What sets the 16700 apart is its direct connection to the early GMT-Master lineage, making it a perfect choice for collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate Rolex’s heritage.
The Rolex 16700 is powered by the 48hr power reserve Caliber 3175 movement, offering the same rugged reliability and precision that Rolex is known for with an added quick-set date function. It lacks the newer “independent hour hand” feature found in later GMT-Master II 16710 models, making it more aligned with the original GMT-Master’s simplicity and purpose. This makes it a true representation of the initial GMT concept, offering a blend of practicality and timeless aesthetics.
This particular example features a light creamy patina on both markers and hand. Fitted with a lightly faded original Rolex “Pepsi” bezel, with its iconic red and blue color scheme, pays homage to the first-ever GMT-Master from the 1950s, the ref. 6542. The bezel’s vibrant bright red-blue colors, along with the creamy patina, create a beautiful contrast that highlights the timeless appeal of the 16700, making it a standout piece for any collection.
This example is also complete with its original warranty certificate dated September 1996, adding to its collectability as a milestone timepiece.
Whether you’re drawn to its historical significance, its beautiful patina, or its connection to the roots of the GMT-Master line, the 16700 is a superb choice for those seeking both style and substance!
