Description

Rolex, GMT-Master, Ref. 16753, no. 629xxxx, circa 1979. A beautiful steel and gold pilot's watch with day/night, 12-24h & second time zone readout. Graduated rotating bezel with patina finish, superb "nipple dial" chocolate brown dial with copper patina finish, luminous hands and hour markers, central second hand, date at 3 o'clock. Screw-down caseback and crown, calibre 3075 self-winding mechanical movement. Steel and gold Jubilé bracelet with steel folding clasp. In very good working condition, the only drawback being a relatively short bracelet. The patina of the bezel and the particularly even patina of the spectacular dial are absolutely superb, with magnificent coppery reflections thanks to the play of light on the dial. The GMT Rolex is undoubtedly the most famous dual timepiece on the watchmaking scene. Reference 16750, with quick date, was produced from 1981 to 1988, after 6542 and 1675. Our reference 16753 corresponds to the two-tone gold and steel version, again with acrylic glass, luminous tritium, and a choice of Jubilee or Oyster bracelet. It's the color of its bezel that will give it the nickname of "Root Beer", the famous American drink. Diam. 40 mm - B.P. 106 g. A very fine stainless steel and yellow gold pilot's wristwatch, featuring day/night, 12-24h & second time zone reading. Faded revolving 24h bezel, amazing chocolate patinated "nipple dial", luminous hands & indexes, sweep center seconds, date at 3. Screw-down and crown, automatic winding movement caliber 3075. Steel and gold Jubilee band with deployant buckle. In very good working condition, with the only downside being a relatively short link bracelet. The patina of the bezel and the particularly homogeneous patina of the spectacular dial are absolutely superb, with magnificent copper reflections thanks to the play of light on the dial. The Rolex GMT is undoubtedly the most famous dual-time watch in the watchmaking landscape. The reference 16750, with the quick date, was produced from 1981 to 1988, after the 6542 and 1675. Our reference 16753 corresponds to the two-tone gold and stainless steel version, always with an acrylic glass, tritium luminous, and the choice offered then between Jubilee or Oyster bracelet. It is the color of its bezel that will give it the nickname "Root Beer", a famous American drink.
