Description

The Rolex GMT-Master II ref. 16718 “Tiger Eye” is one of the most distinctive executions of Rolex’s iconic traveler’s watch, crafted in 18K yellow gold and fitted with a dial that collectors affectionately call the Tiger’s Eye. Its 40 mm Oyster case, produced in the 1990s and early 2000s, combines the robustness of the GMT-Master line with the opulence of solid gold construction.

The defining feature of this model is its brown sunburst dial, which shifts in tone under different light conditions, evoking the shimmering patterns of the semi-precious stone tiger’s eye. Complemented by a brown and gold bezel insert, the watch exudes warmth and vintage charm while maintaining full functionality. Applied hour markers and Mercedes-style hands with luminescent material ensure clarity in any environment.

At its heart beats the Rolex calibre 3185, an automatic GMT movement that allows the independent adjustment of the local hour hand, a hallmark of modern GMT functionality. Offering a 50-hour power reserve and chronometer certification, it delivers precision and reliability for world travelers.

The 16718 was available with both the Oyster bracelet for a sporty presence and the President bracelet for a more opulent feel, each in 18K yellow gold and secured with Rolex’s Oysterlock clasp. Water resistant to 100 meters, the model balances everyday practicality with unmistakable prestige.

Today, the GMT-Master II 16718 “Tiger Eye” stands out as a collector’s favorite, prized for its rare dial, warm golden tones, and status as a transitional piece between vintage GMTs and modern references. It represents the fusion of Rolex’s tool-watch heritage with luxurious craftsmanship, making it an icon of 1990s Rolex design.
