SS GMTII ceramic was launched. It would be logical to asume that any 16570`s produced after that date would have 3186 movements in them.
That's interesting...

So we are more likely to see the new movement in an EXP II than a GMT ??

Wouldn't/shouldn't Rolex have changed the ref # to 116570 due to a new movement ???
