Rolex GMT-Master II ‘Batman’ ‘Stickered’

The Rolex GMT-Master II reference 116710BLNR, affectionately known as the “Batman” due to its striking black and blue Cerachrom bezel, is a highly sought-after model that was discontinued in 2019. The 2018 version, in particular, is prized among collectors for its pristine condition and complete set of original packaging and documentation.

This timepiece features a 40mm Oystersteel case, renowned for its robustness and resistance to corrosion. The black dial is complemented by white hour markers and hands, all treated with Chromalight for enhanced legibility in low-light conditions. The bidirectional rotatable bezel, with its 24-hour graduations, allows for tracking of a second time zone, a hallmark of the GMT-Master series.

Powered by the Rolex Caliber 3186, this movement offers precise timekeeping and a 48-hour power reserve. The watch is equipped with the Oysterlock clasp and Easylink extension link, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit. It is also water-resistant to 100 meters, making it suitable for everyday wear.

The 2018 model is particularly notable for its “full stickers” condition, meaning it retains all of its original factory protective stickers, indicating it has never been worn. This, combined with the complete set of original box, papers, and warranty card, makes it a rare find in the market.

Due to its discontinued status and the desirability of the “Batman” model, the 116710BLNR has become a collector’s item, often commanding prices above its original retail value. Collectors and enthusiasts alike appreciate its combination of functionality, durability, and aesthetic appeal.
