Rolex “16750 Gloss” GMT-Master

Description

Up for grabs is a Rolex GMT-Master, Ref. 16750, circa 1984.  The reference 16750 was a transitional reference for Rolex, from the 1675, which introduced their new Caliber 3075 movement, and changed the date function to a quick-set.  Further, this example has a “gloss” dial, which was Rolex’s departure from their traditional “matte” dial.

This Rolex GMT-Master is in excellent vintage condition.  The case appears lightly polished, still very sharp, with original beveled edges visible. The dial is in great condition, with no chips, scratches, or spidering.  The original tritium lume, present on both the dial and hands, aged to a vibrant orange color, slightly paler in the hour and minute hand, albeit original.

The watch comes equipped on an original Rolex Oyster Jubilee 62510H bracelet, with 550/50 endlinks/endpieces, and has minor stretch, overall very well-preserved for a Jubilee bracelet, fitting a large wrist.
