Rolex GMT Master II 16713

Key Product Information

The 16713 features a 40 mm case combining stainless steel and 18k yellow gold, topped with a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and fitted with a screw-down crown — a robust construction that ensures reliable water resistance. The model is equipped with a bidirectional 24-hour bezel with a black insert, which makes it a distinctive, understated take on the GMT aesthetic. The dial is black, complemented by gold hour markers and “Mercedes” hands, and includes a date window at 3 o’clock under the characteristic Rolex cyclops lens for enhanced readability. Inside beats the automatic calibre 3185, a self-winding in-house movement providing GMT functionality (i.e. a separate 24-hour hand for tracking a second time zone). The watch is finished with a two-tone steel and gold Oyster bracelet with a folding clasp, offering a refined blend of sportiness and elegance on the wrist.

Brand heritage & significance

As part of the broader lineage of the GMT-Master family — originally conceived by Rolex for pilots needing to track multiple time zones — the 16713 exemplifies Rolex’s ability to combine utility and luxury. The black-bezel version stands out for a more subtle, versatile aesthetic compared with the brightly coloured versions, appealing to collectors and wearers who prefer understated elegance with the practicality of a GMT watch.
