Incoming! 16710 GMT Coke

A few months ago a friend of mine asked me to sell his 16710 coke. I took the watch and listed it for sale. Shortly after he sold it himself and took it back. While it was in my possession I really started to dig the watch.

Low and behold his sale fell through and he just decided to keep it. Since then I’ve been whispering in his ear to let it go. After a few months of convincing him he finally decided to let me have it.

This baby is a really awesome full set. Even has a RSC service card from a recent service. I also bought a like-new jubilee bracelet!

So here she is!

Beautiful set. Especially with the jubilee AND oyster. Absolutely love this watch. Definitely next on the list for me, between a Pepsi or coke. Would love the jubilee as well. I think it looks spectacular. Currently looking for a jubilee for my 16570.

Enjoy!

Congrats on a beautiful watch. And a complete set at that too! Just don't let your 'friend' see this thread!!!

I am starting to like the idea of Jubilee on 16710. Any suggestion on where to start looking??
