In production between 1989 and 2007, reference 16710 was introduced to replace reference 16760. During its long production run, the reference underwent several variations and was available with different bezels, either plain black, red and black (nincknamed 'Coke') and red and blue (known as 'Pepsi').
The current lot comes with both papers and box and retains beautiful proportions.
