That's cheap for either. Just Google "Rolex 16750 vs 16710".

Prefer the black bezel to Pepsi, and I prefer that it is a 16710

GMT Master II - the 24 hour hand and regular hour hand are not locked together and can be set independently which is useful. To accomplish this it has a quick set hour hand which is really handy when you are traveling across time zones because you can move the hour hand in one hour increments without having to stop the watch. And I lived with the plastic crystal for 34 years and it is a scratch magnet; I much prefer the sapphire crystals which do not scratch with normal wear. You can always change the bezel insert if you prefer the pepsi.

Besides what everyone else mentioned. If you don't mind zero lume then go for the 16750. If that bothers you, the 16710.

Pepsi. Looks to have an original tritium dial + set of hands too. Plus the plastic crystal is cool.

Theyre both a very good deal. I got mine pre-owned for a lot more.

Wow. Two great pieces at great prices. I wouldn't let the bezel color drive your decision, since you can easily source the color insert of your choice for either of them. The 16750 looks completely unpolished and in great shape....can't be certain about the 16710 but it looks pretty good too. As was mentioned, the functionality is quite different....quick set date vs independent, quick set hour hand....so that should be a consideration. Also, plastic vs sapphire crystal. Crazy low prices on both, but I think I'd have to go with the 16750. Those lugs look untouched.....

I'd take the black. I'm more of a fan of Coca Cola myself :)

Easy call. Pepsi. The all black is remarkably less interesting. |

Looks better with your clothing - and classic look |

Two GMT, which one is the winner ?
My advise is go by condition, box/papers? When were they serviced? Etc... I personally prefer 16750 for the quick set date, the inserts are cheap and can be changed! Good luck! The GMT is for me by far the best Rolex sport model, better in my opinion than a Daytona or a Sub...

Not to be fly in ointment, but those prices seem very low to me. But I'm jaded/cynical.
