The 16760 is the first GMT-Master II, built around caliber 3085 and the independently adjustable 24-hour hand. Separating the local hour hand from the 24-hour hand turned the bezel into a third-time-zone tool instead of a second-time-zone aid, and it cost height: the 3085 is 6.3mm thick, and the case grew around it. That thickness gave the reference both of its collector names, "Fat Lady" and the politer "Sophia Loren," after the actress's curves. Most editorial coverage runs the production window from 1983 to 1988. The red-and-black Coke insert is the only factory bezel configuration. | The 16760 is the first GMT-Master II, built around caliber 3085 and the independently adjustable 24-hour hand.
