It's possible

It is clear that Rolex used atleast 2 different fonts for the "2" in the 16710 GMT II. One appears to be roman numeral markers (for lack of a better description) and the other seems to be parallel sticks (for lack of a better description).

I am not sure you can make a conclusion that one of the styles has the 3186 and the other does not.

I have another thought on it........My 16710 Pepsi came with the newer Users Manual, the one for the GMTIIC. At first I thought the AD or Rolex mixed up the manuals, I am beginning to think it was on purpose because my watch may very well have the 3186 in it (no wiggle, and Z7xxxxxx serial number). so another theory is that if you have a 16710 with the newer manual, you may have the 3186. But then again, the sure way is to crack open the back.
