A "Columbine" is a GMT ll Z or M with 3186 mvt and the "ll" stick or shelter different than the II roman of the 16710 before 2007 with the 3185 mvt.
Beautiful your 16613 is JJ, i called it the "Poseidon wath" because of the old Ads of this TT ROLEX in the 80's in magazines( when i was child!) |

Bienvenue Yous !
Nice watch ;-) Regarding the "Columbine" name, its a European thing i guess. Cause it how the 3186 16710 is called in French speaking Rolex forums (french, swiss, etc)

Columbine. what a load of codswallop its just a normal production 16710 with the slightly modded 3186 movement.

Columbine has some negative vibe here in the USA.
