Orchi, I have seen more than 1 GMT 2 tone with those reference. I believe those are what are called conversion watches. In plain english I think it never left Rolex like this but can be made with all Rolex parts.Back in the late 80's I had seen this alot going back to stainless and visa versa.I had a friend that wanted a 2 tone sub and had his SS converted by a local unauthorised Rolex repair buyer and seller.He used all Genuine Rolex parts and my friend was happy with it. Now some call it a frankenwatch. If I am wrong I dont claim to be an expert or a know it all so please correct me.

Err buddy Nikos...welcome to this TRF's WatchOut forum...!
On the note with Rolex Ref 16760 n 16700...GMTs...
Not withstanding what buddy Jeff Hess or others may have the rights to own opinion...
by stating the following in the relevant listing...
it can lead the listing to be construed as...
misinterpretation or misrepresentation...
"VINTAGE ROLEX GMT Master Mens Wrist Watch Quick set date feature. Swiss made"...
The watch is messed up...mixed up...mismatched...a Frankie...or Franken...
BUT the watches are indeed INCORRECT to be in Gold/SS configuration...
n they were NOT Trademarked ROLEX GMT Master Swiss Made...
to be precise.
