Introduced in 1988, the Rolex GMT-Master ref. 16700 featured modern aesthetics and technical upgrades during its transitional period. Featuring a sapphire crystal for the frst time in the lineage of the reference, it provides enhanced robustness and durability. Furthermore, it features white gold luminous indexes instead of the luminous material directly applied on the dial and an upgraded case design to enhance its imperishability. The present example is a wonderful specimen of the great transitional GMT-Master ref. 16700 presented in excellent overall condition. To add tremendous attraction to the present example that further exemplifes its rarity, the dial features a retailer signature “Tifany & Co.” Also, the present watch is complete with all the accessories that came with the watch when it was purchased from the Tifany & Co. Salon.
