The GMT Master II ref. 16710 is one of the most iconic and influential examples of the brand’s multi-time zone pilot’s watch. It brought an upgraded case and movement to the line, making it a huge success and leading to its impressive production run of almost twenty years. The ref. 16710 was then replaced by the ref. 116710 in the late 2000s as a completely new generation of Rolex GMT-Master tool watches began to make an appearance with a brand new case and bracelet design, improved materials, and a new movement.Rolex developed the GMT-Master in the early 1950s at the request of Pan Am Airlines. Its release came during the dawn of international flight. The famous air carrier required a dual-time wristwatch to issue their pilots, and the GMT-Master was born. The GMT-Master II was released a number of years later in 1983 with the ref. 16760, and brought with it independent hour hands that allow the wearer to read two time zones on the dial and a third on the bezel.The first GMT-Master II ref. 16760 featured a bulkier case and is often referred to by avid collectors as the “Fat Lady” or “Sophia Loren.” In 1989, Rolex would release a refined variation of the Fat Lady GMT in the form of the sleeker reference Rolex 16710 with a thinner case and movement. The ref. 16710 was well-received among collectors for its upgraded case and movement, and it would go on to become one of the most successful GMT-Master II models, remaining in production for nearly twenty years.A completely redesigned version of the stainless steel Rolex GMT-Master II was introduced in 2007, which meant the discontinuation of the long-running ref. 16710. The Rolex 116710 is similar in design as its 5-digit predecessor with an all-steel finish, a perpetual movement with independent hour hands, and a bidirectional bezel; however, that’s where its similarities end. The ref. 116710 is almost an entirely new watch and boasts a redesigned bezel, case, bracelet, and dial, as well as the newer Caliber 3186 perpetual movement.
Because some other low-end 7750 replica watches are with chronograph movement assembled in Tianjin or Jieyang and other areas of China. Overall, Shanghai 7750 is the best. J12 factory uses Shanghai 7750 in this replica Daytona watch. Keep your focus on the dial, the small second hand works smoothly on subdial at 6. 30-minute and 12-hour chronograph counter are positioned at 3 and 9 separately. You must loosen the screw on pusher first, and then push it to start chronograph.When you first see this two tone Rolex Daytona replica, you will have another doubt. That’s the gold coating on case and bracelet. Will the gold easily fade? I must say no. Yes, I have to admit those gold watches produced in past years did have thin gold coating and easily got scratched. While this replica made by the big factory J12 has a thick gold plating, which is nearly 5 mils, so golden color will not fade easily. J12 Rolex Daytona Caseback I like this Daytona watch, the two tone makes it looks fabulous, black dial is really elegant, those hour markers feature gold edge, which exactly meets the golden tone of the watch. Hour markers and hands are all applied white luminous material, they all supply strong lume light in the dark. This Daytona watch will become the best selling model, its color match is the favorite of many watch fans, and J12 factory guarantees its super quality.Replica Vintage Rolex 5508 Blue Submariner Rolex Submariner 5508 Replica.In recent months, BP, which is a factory has produced a lot of high quality Rolex replicas, made several vintage Submariner replicas and attracted our attention. Those vintage Rolex like 1680 and 5513 are highly pursued because they have not been in stock in genuine watch market. I always like vintage Rolex and Panerai, I saw there is a close relationship between Rolex and Panerai in old times. I love vintage Rolex Submariner because most of them are equipped with nylon nato strap, which is my favorite band and could fit my thin wrist perfectly. Besides, vintage Rolex could let me know a lot of myths which you can not find on modern Rolex. There are a certain amount of people in the world who love searching for vintage watches that already do not exist, so they seek from replica watches market. For example, I have three clients coming from France, the United States and UK, everytime they contacted with me is for vintage Rolex, such as Daytona Paul Newman, Double Red Sea-Dweller or Submariner 1680, one of my clients has bought three vintage Submariner watches from me, and he kept asking for new models once there is.
However, the dials of the gold Sub were not the standard black dials of their stainless steel counterparts.A few years later, around 1971, Rolex offered another colorway of the yellow gold Submariner featuring a bright blue bezel and dial. The yellow gold Submariners in blue also has the same “nipple dial” design. Particularly intriguing with the blue gold Submariner 1680/8 models is how the dials have transformed into different colors over time including lighter blues, vibrant purples, and rich reddish brown (also known as “tropical dials” in vintage Rolex terminology). Comparing the Rolex Submariner to the GMT-Master II.Two watches, perhaps the two most well-known in Rolex’s sports watch lineup, have amazing similarities, and one can be forgiven for confusing them at a distance. These two watches are, of course, the Submariner dive watch (ref. 116610) and the GMT-Master II (we’ll call it the GMT for short, but we’re talking about the current ref. 116710).The Submariner GMT Master Comparison .The individual histories of the Submariner and the GMT are well documented elsewhere, so let’s compare and contrast the two current models.First, the similarities. The Submariner and the GMT-Master II are luxury watches. Both watches are currently housed in the 40mm diameter so-called “super case” with a ceramic or Cerachrom bezel insert. This case, done in 904L stainless steel, debuted in 2007 with the GMT (the Submariner received the new case a year later). There are minute differences in the two cases, but you need to set them side by side and look very closely to see them.Both watches buckle to your wrist with the current Oyster bracelet.
Submariner 116613LN has longer lugs and bigger crown bridge, so this feels it has a bigger case. The bracelet is also made of solid 316L stainless steel and gold-cladding, matching the case perfectly. It’s front cover is made of sapphire crystal and there is water-drop enlarged at 3:00 position for the date indicator. The waterproof is 100 meter that allow for swimming.Replica Rolex Submariner 116613LN Black Dial Replica Rolex Submariner 116613LN Caseback.This replica Rolex Submariner has two edition, a normal edition and a latest V6S edition. Here is the difference between these two: there is a laser Anti-counterfeiting Rolex logo on the front case at 6:00 position, this is exactly as original edition. This logo has to use magnifier or put it at a 45 degree under the light to see it. But, the ordinary edition has the painted crown logo that can be seem directly. There comes very the original Rolex package, very fancy and high-class.Many of Rolex watch models are inspired a lot from sports, Rolex Yacht-Master is one of them. Rolex released the first Yacht-Master watch in 2007, and then released Yacht-Master II on the Basel in 2013 which became one of the most classic sporty watch in the market. Of course, then there came out many replica versions, I have seen many editions of replica Rolex Yatch-Master II, but today I would like to introduce a good edition to you, comparing to other editions on the look and function, this is the best.Rolex Yacht-Master Watch design comes from yacht racing, which we can tell from its name. This replica has a 1:1 proportion case, 44mm*14mm is a perfect size for its design. As it is designed for the professional sailing players and the yacht fans, the watch stands for Rolex’s best level on accuracy, function and technology. The case material is top-grade solid 316L stainless steel. On the white dial, we can see functions are including hour, minute, second and chronograph. These functions can be adjusted by the crown and buttons on the side, very easy to operate. There is a small red triangle hand on the dial, this is just for decoration, not moving at all. The blue bezel inspiration comes from the ocean where the yacht should be, and it can rotate both ways. Bezel is made of ceramic, new and top material in watch.
About the movement, ZF claimed that it is a clone IWC 89361, actually it is modified from a Chinese chronograph movement, we call it Asia Valjoux 7750, whatever behind the solid case back, the movement can completely achieve all functions of genuine watch. Besides, the stability of this type of Asia Valjoux 7750 has been tested for more than 10 years, it is trustworthy.Watch band looks nylon on the outside, but it is actually made of calf leather, you can see it on the back side. The nylon face outside can prevent rain and water drops when washing your hands, while the genuine leather that touches your skin will bring you a great wearing comfort. So such type of band has multiple purposes. The buckle on the band is crafted very well and has a good brushing finish.The review is done, let’s appreciate their acutal photos below.
