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.
The dial is black, it has delicate matte texture. The dial has a very high readability, besides the big hour markers and wide hands, there is also increased luminescence on hour markers and hands to ehance the visibility when you are in dark conditions. This IWC Aquatimer is very like Rolex Submariner, both have robust case, big hour markers, wide hands and strong dial lume. The minute hand is highly recognizable because the orange Swiss lume material is in line with the eye-catching orange 1-15 diving markers on the bezel.The replica watch is equipped with an Asia ETA 2892 automatic movement, which is very reliable and has been used in many replica watches such as Cartier Ballon Bleu, MK IWC Pilot, Hublot Classic Fusion, etc., and these have become the best-selling replica watches in our market. The following are detailed photos of the two watches, please check.Big Pilot is one of the best-selling watches of IWC. It has a very iconic onion-shaped crown that is very large. Among all IWC series, Pilot is the most popular one, while Big Pilot is the best-selling due to its large size under current big watch trend. There are a lot of Big Pilot models IWC has published, some already have accupied an important position in watch market, for example, the Big Pilot Prince. Today, I will introduce two new Big Pilot watches, one is made with Titanium, the other is made with solid bronze.
The replica is made of 316L stainless steel that is imported from Germany. The case is 36mm in diameter, such size of watch is very suitable for men and ladies who own small wrist. Not like other Tudor Black Bay that features a green, red or a bi-color bezel, this Tudor replica watch has a pure stainless steel bezel that is smoothly polished, the lugs have a brushed surface with polished edge and side. The whole case is not only 1:1 replicated from original, it also has a perfect finish, so that you will get a very comfortalbe wearing.The dial is black, but it also has blue option. Silver snowflake second hand is a classic feature of Tudor. Hour markers and hands have silver edge and are filled with Swiss A grade Super-LumiNova C1. The dial looks very simple and it does not have a date window, means the watch does not have a date function. Well, the watch already has hours, minutes and hands, these functions are very enough for me, about the date, it is not necessary for me, and for a replica, the movement will be more stable and durable if it does not have a date function.Besides its super dial lume, just seeing from its case and bezel design, the replica Tudor watch does not have any sports features, if somebody is willing to buy it, I think he just wants to use it as a dress watch, however, the tan color leather band adds some sporty style for the watch, it looks like Panerai’s ASSO leather band. The back side of the band, I mean the side that contacts your wrist skin, is made of calf skin leather that feels very soft. It is exactly this grey leather band that increases the sporty temperament of the replica watch.It is a long time to wait for this replica Rolex Daytona to arrive, but fortunately I was very surprised by its super quality and finish.
