Nicknamed the "Fat Lady", the Rolex reference 16760 was undoubtedly an important timepiece within the Rolex archives.
It was the first model of the GMT-Master II collection allowing the center hour hand to be set independently, the first to feature a "Coke" bezel, the first to incorporate a sapphire crystal and the first to apply white gold indexes.
Extremely daring and cutting edge at its time, the present watch expresses a great level of creativity.
