UK Perfect Replica Rolex GMT-Master II ref. 16710

Our next pick is indeed a super popular GMT-Master model, but we picked a special “version” from its two-decade production run. The best fake Rolex GMT-Master II ref. 16710 watches were in production from the late 1980s until 2007. That year, it was replaced by the 116710, which was the first stainless steel model with a Cerachrom bezel insert. You will see the 16710 with a full-black bezel, a red and black “Coke” bezel, or the traditional blue and red “Pepsi” bezel.

The Pepsi bezels of the 2001 and 2002 models are special, though. My Fratello colleague Gerard owns a GMT-Master II ref. 16710 from 2002, and it came with a faded red portion of the bezel insert straight out of the box. This instantly gave the cheap super clone watches vintage feel. Of course, that’s not something every owner of a new Rolex liked, so a lot of the bezel inserts were replaced with new ones in the years after. But if you ask us, it gives the watch an unmistakable and lovable charm.

The faded bezel is the one to go for

The UK luxury replica Rolex watches were powered by the in-house caliber 3185, although some of the last models were already powered by the follow-up caliber 3186. The 3185 operated at 28,800vph and offered 50 hours of power reserve. Finding a 16710 is easy because of its long production run. If you want to find a model with a “factory-faded” bezel insert, look for the K or Y serial numbers from 2001/2002, as Gerard explained.

As mentioned, though, many bezel inserts have been replaced in the meantime, so you might have to search for a bit. Prices for high quality copy Rolex GMT-Master II ref. 16710 watches start around €8K and go up to approximately €20K. We spotted some versions with the faded bezel that were roughly €13K to €16K. This sum will get you a beautiful version of the 16710, the last of the aluminum-bezel GMT-Masters.
