Rolex first launched these exceptional, white gold and gemstone-set versions of the iconic GMT-Master II in 2007. Three extravagant versions of this reference can be counted: the 116759SARU with diamonds, sapphires and rubies, the 116759SANR with diamonds and black sapphires and the present 116759SA with diamonds and blue sapphires.
Instead of the stainless steel Oyster case and the standard Cerachrom bezel of the reference 11670, the present lot is entirely made out of 18k white gold. The top of the lugs is adorned with diamonds and in addition, the watch has been given the distinctive feature of a diamond and sapphire-set rotating bezel as well as a fully pavé diamond-set dial. It is offered for the first time at auction by its original owner in attractive condition with Rolex guarantee and presentation case with outer packaging.
