Did the Gen GMT-Master II ever have an engraved rehaut?

Did the Gen GMT-Master II ever have an engraved rehaut? I've seen it at several Trusted dealer sites.

I don't think so.

I believe that rolex started to put an engraving in this exact model, the GMT II C.

No. There was never a 16710 with an engraved rehaut.

I don't know what model that's supposed to be in that pic, but Rolex never built it.

That picture really shows the problem with the incorrect hand stack. Check out the bend in that GMT hand!

Correct, the GMT-Master II has never had the rehaut engraved. It was introduced from 2004 to 2005 with the ceramic model and extended to the Rolex line.

But for the GMT-Master non-ceramic (Pepsi, Coke and all-black), its manufacturing was ceased before the introduction of this feature.

This ceramic pepsi on the OP's link is fantasy and has never happened on the real thing.

Cheers,

What should the correct handstack be on this ?

sorry, Re my last post. Am I correct in thinking. Hour, GMT, Minute, Second as being the correct stack ?

Yep, your thought of correct handstack is right:

Hour > GMT > Minutes > Seconds (from bottom to top)
