16710 as a 3 in 1 watch?
Has anyone with a 16710 gotten the alternate bezel options through Rolex? I've heard of people doing this before, and it essentially becomes 3 watches in 1. It's honestly quite amazing. I've always dreamed of a 16710 Pepsi and this draws me to it even more

Not a 16710 , but a 16700 & yes all bezel insert options covered . It really is a 3 in 1 watch & even better with the oyster and jubilee bracelet option

16710 is a great watch (as is the 16700) providing great design and reliability, and with several options as you state. Personally, I have never experienced difficulty with Rolex in swapping out bezel inserts, but have occasionally read of others who have.

I’m probably one of the few on TRF that doesn’t swap out bezels or bracelet’s, very nice to have the option to do so though.

Happy to swap bracelets around, but not inserts/bezels. Inserts are so easily breakable with the force that's required to fit them...

No reason not to take full advantage of everything the most versatile watch Rolex has ever produced has to offer. This is common for many 16710 owners on TRF.

it's much easier to swap the entire bezel than just the insert. |

I’ve been eyeing 16710’s lately. This is one of many reasons

If you own a 16710, you'd be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't take advantage of the different looks!
