Rolex “Matte 16750” GMT-Master

Description

Up for grabs is a Rolex GMT-Master, Ref. 16750, circa 1981.  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. This Rolex GMT-Master is in excellent condition.  The case appears unpolished, with original chamfers/beveled edges present, but is worn. The dial is in excellent condition, with no major damage, and has one small tool mark by the base of the hands, visible with a loupe. The lume is original tritium on the dial, aged to a golden yellow color; the hands have been professionally color-matched to the dial. The original “Pepsi” redback insert has a nice faded appearance.  The watch comes equipped on its original Rolex Oyster 78360/580 bracelet, with 12 full links, and minimal stretch.
