That definitely looks like a BP. The LF dial is totally different on both versions. Also the LF has a much wider SS border around the GMT hand, which is more equal sided. The BP GMT hand is slightly elongated. My BP on the bottom.

Ah ok, in comparing the GMT hand on my gen 16570 I see what you mean.

Super helpful review. Was considering doing a Franken with a BP 16710 base. This is a great resource!

Many thanks for that review.
I read all this with great interest, being looking for a GMT master.
However, I've never heard of L Factory, I recently discovered DJF and GMF.

Thanks a lot for this review, very interesting read, especially for a rep newb like me, seeking a 16710 as my first rep.
Will probably go for a BP.

[Edit] : KJ2020 , One more question though, how about the weight: Were you able to weigh them? Is there a significant difference?

The 10-20 year old market is going nuts right now as the Rolex drought continues, so good almost-vintage pieces are becoming all the rage. Hopefully we’ll see that with newer and better 5 digit reps.
