End of June last year, I have placed a want to buy GMT II Franken, with no luck. apparently, those frankens are very difficult to come by, well 6 months later, and before Christmas, I have found one for sale in M2M. to my surprise, that Franken was brand new, and it has more than I ever thought I would get for a none used watch. I jumped on it immediately..
I have received my early Christmas gifts to myself, and this lovely Franken was part of the huge shipment I got..
below are the work done on the watch, mind you the time and effort that was spent on this baby is not included in the list, and I think is priceless.. thanks to the seller, it's definitely my gain. this watch is a keeper, as it won't ever get any better unless I place an order for a gen 116710.
The list of the job done:-
- Rolex 116710LN Noob v2 A2836 from Ryan at Intime
- GEN Rolex 116710 Crystal with LEC and AR BRAND NEW

without further ado here is what you have come to look at, not my words, my pictures:

Those pics were from the seller, as I found them great for having close ups and macro shots..
and here are some pics I have taken my self when it arrived..
Some wrist shots to compliment the thread.. the first two wristies were taken immediately after the above pics,
and the other ones were taken after fitting lovely green perlon strap to match the green GMT theme..
black perlon anyone?? which do you prefer? the black or the green on the 116710 ??
