Good old 16710

Bought this watch back in 2008. Full set was 4000-something euros.

Still going strong.

…I bought mine after seeing hundreds of Dan’s pix.

z serial, 2007, brand new from an AD in May 2008 for £2790.

I bought it the same day I started looking for one…here’s the thread https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=39470

Pepsi is pure

The 5 series GMTs were, and still remain, classic examples of what made Rolex great.
Timeless and rugged, stylish and functional, built to last.
Love mine.
