Here's my three. Left to right 16710 Coke 116710 C 16750 Pepsi
I can't decide which is my favorite. Usually whichever one is on my wrist.

Gasoil4ever · 20 February 2009, 03:58 AM

Wow !

All those GMT's make me want to have one more !!!

yous · 20 February 2009, 05:55 AM

I have since nearly one year a 16710 M coke bezel with the 3186 movement, it's a wonderful watch, my first Rolex!

Fai17 · 27 February 2009, 02:47 AM

hell yes.

gMtree · 26 March 2009, 03:38 PM

guys.. hw do you differentiate between GMTII and GMTIIc? does the 2006 models comes with the etched crown?

timmovitz · 13 January 2010, 06:24 PM

Thanks for the review, this one is on my short list. Do you still have both

sheldonsmith · 14 January 2010, 12:57 AM

Yes, still have both of mine... my 116710LN is my daily wearer (with brushed bracelet).

CBG1 · 14 January 2010, 05:27 PM

just acquired a 16710. Tried on the GMT-IIC as well. In addition to it being a bit more $ on the get go, I just couldn't see past the larger numbers on the bezel. is it a sexy watch, absolutely. is it unique in all of the technology introduced, most certainly. Do I have the funds for both, not quite yet! While I think the IIC is definitely a fabulous watch, I opted for the black bezel 16710 as my introduction into the gmt world.

sea-dweller · 18 January 2010, 03:09 AM

I would own both, as both GMT's are awesome !!!

Daytonamania · 18 January 2010, 04:34 AM

Totally love the fat red handed GMT , when did they stop making them and is there much difference with the skinny red handed GMT?
Tried on the new green hand model but is not the same , must own the red one soon.
The pics are lovely guys , hopefully this year i can join the GMT gang.

Phil G. · 20 January 2010, 10:40 AM

I have a GMT Master Pepsi and a new GMT Master IIc. They have their similarities, but I agree they each have their own character. Both very beautiful watches. The IIc is a bit more eyecatching (maybe because it's newer), but there's something so classic about the original GMT Master.

tempest · 4 March 2010, 11:54 PM

Hi all

I am ready to buy my first GMT... I just can't get my head around which one!!

I'm down to two - GMT II Coke 16710 or the new GMT II Ceramic.

There is obviously a price difference (I think about £700 looking at what I can find between a new ceramic and pre-owned coke) so id it worth the extra money?

Any help you can give me will be great - at the moment I can only afford one!

webopt · 5 April 2010, 11:05 AM

Hello To all, I have to say that even do they are two unique time pieces, they also had there own special quality, I love my GMT II and I could go either way, "C" class or Contemporary it is on the eye of the beholder....

dl_amg · 8 April 2010, 02:40 PM

so I have no issue now. ;)

htc8p · 10 April 2010, 01:43 PM

gmt2c more formal, classy and updated. gmt2 more practical and casual. but both are fit for use.

harder to find the gmt2 since not in production anymore

HDHNTER · 10 April 2010, 03:20 PM

One is enough for me but if I decided to get a second it would be the 1675.

Tony G · 8 February 2013, 09:00 PM

Nice !!!

DynamiteBids · 9 February 2013, 01:12 AM

Both are required until the Pepsi/Coke Ceramic comes out.

Tf308 · 9 February 2013, 12:07 PM

The red hand in the older model did it for me.

I was considering the new ceramic but I don't care for the green.

I was excited that the new explorer ii was 42mm...until I saw the orange hand.

After wearing a 5513 for nearly 30 years, I was looking for something similar,but with a little difference....it was the red hand and coke bezel that did it.

Psmith · 9 February 2013, 05:35 PM

Ye Olde Threade

But seeing as I'm here, I prefer the more recent model

Buy the GMT II , you'll ultimately end up there anyway..... It just feels RIGHT :)
