A prestigious timepiece sought after by connoisseurs, this Rolex GMT-Master II reference 116718LN combines the sporty aura of the GMT line with the refined opulence of 18-karat yellow gold. Its green dial immediately sets it apart: a signature color associated with the modern evolution of the collection and, since this configuration was discontinued, a marker of exclusivity. A versatile luxury watch, a travel instrument, and a collector's item, it represents a rare opportunity for anyone wishing to acquire a precious and heritage Rolex sports watch in excellent condition, with a full 2018 set, and available immediately.
The 40 mm Oyster case in 18 ct yellow gold features the manufacture's signature alternating satin and polished finish, revealing crisp edges and seamless visual continuity between the lugs and the solid links of the Oyster bracelet. The monobloc black Cerachrom bezel, engraved with a 24-hour scale featuring polished and inlaid gold numerals, offers exceptional contrast and resistance to scratches and UV rays. On the sunburst satin green dial—a now-iconic shade—applied hour markers and yellow gold hands with long-lasting luminescent treatment stand out, joined by the arrow-shaped GMT hand that structures the reading of the second time zone. The overall effect is a sophisticated chromatic presence: a dialogue between the mineral depth of the green, the luminous density of the precious metal, and the technical black of the bezel. The screw-down Triplock crown, the restrained proportions, and the balanced volumes preserve the original utilitarian DNA, transfigured here by the jewelry-like execution.
The in-house, self-winding caliber 3186 simultaneously displays local time, a second 24-hour time zone, and a quick-change date. Its robust architecture, paramagnetic blue Parachrom hairspring, and fine-tuning ensure stable timekeeping in the face of temperature variations and everyday magnetic disturbances. Chronometer-certified, it delivers rigorous precision and a power reserve suitable for intensive use. The independent adjustment of the local time hand facilitates time zone transitions without compromising overall accuracy. Water resistance to 100 meters, a sapphire crystal, and the Oyster construction provide exceptional resilience, ensuring this precious travel watch remains fully functional in a variety of environments.
This configuration combines three desirable elements: all-premium metal, a distinctive green dial, and a historic GMT function. Now discontinued, the 116718LN with a green dial has established itself as a modern collector's item, often carefully preserved and less frequently available from stock immediately. It offers a warmer and more expressive alternative to the steel versions while maintaining the legibility and utilitarian structure of the line. For the collector, the presence of the complete set of original 2018 accessories, the purchase invoice, and related documents enhances its provenance and heritage potential. For the style enthusiast, its color palette transitions elegantly from a professional setting to contemporary evening wear.
