Preowned Rolex GMT-Master II 116710LN 2017 Watch

The Rolex GMT-Master II 116710LN is the modern expression of a horological legend — a watch born from the golden age of aviation and refined for the contemporary collector. Introduced in 2007, this reference marked the first all-black ceramic bezel GMT-Master II, blending Rolex’s pioneering travel watch heritage with 21st-century innovation.

This 2017 example is presented in very good condition, accompanied by its original box and papers, offering a complete and authentic set. The 40mm Oystersteel case is paired with a solid-link Oyster bracelet, engineered for robustness and comfort. The black lacquer dial, featuring luminous hour markers in the signature mix of baton, round, and arrow indices, provides outstanding clarity — complemented by the 24-hour green GMT hand, a subtle nod to Rolex’s corporate colour and its history of innovation.

At the heart of this model beats the Rolex Calibre 3186, a chronometer-certified automatic movement renowned for its precision and the independent local hour hand — allowing seamless adjustment across time zones without affecting accuracy.

The black Cerachrom bezel, made from virtually scratchproof ceramic, represents Rolex’s mastery of material science. It retains its rich, glossy finish indefinitely, a defining hallmark of this modern GMT classic.

Key Features:

• Reference 116710LN – The Final “Monochrome” GMT-Master II

• 40mm Oystersteel Case & Black Cerachrom Bezel – Sleek, stealthy, and enduringly contemporary.

• Rolex Calibre 3186 – Chronometer-certified automatic movement with GMT functionality.

• Superlative Legibility – Chromalight display with long-lasting blue luminescence.

• Full Set (Box & Papers) – A complete and desirable package for collectors.

Collectability & Legacy:
The 116710LN holds a distinctive place in the Rolex GMT lineage as the last of the black-bezel GMT-Masters, preceding the colourful “Batman” and “Pepsi” variants. Its minimalist, all-black aesthetic gives it a versatility unmatched among modern Rolex sport models — equally at home in the cockpit, boardroom, or evening setting.

Discontinued in 2019, this reference has since gained significant collector attention for its understated elegance and transitional significance in Rolex’s GMT evolution. As one of the final models to feature the 3186 movement, it embodies both heritage and modern performance — a perfect choice for the discerning Rolex enthusiast.
