GMT-Master II ‘Fat Lady’ Ref. 16760, so called because of its thicker case than the previous reference 16700 – to create enough space for the then new Rolex caliber 3085. This watch is also known as the ‘Sophia Loren’ or, due to the distinctive black and red 24-hour rim, the ‘Coke’. This was the only color scheme available during the relatively short lifespan of this reference from 1982 to 1988, which was always offered in stainless steel. The many nicknames are a sign that this watch has always been the focus of attention for connoisseurs and collectors who express their affection in this way.
