1985 Rolex GMT-Master 16750
The transitional model 16750 is the last of the plexi-crystal generation of the GMT-Master, and likely the first of the neo-vintage models that are easily slipping into true vintage territory. This example has such a beautiful patina developed on its dial and hands, a deep custard yellow tritium markers. The formerly glossy dial has completely turned matte, and is near perfect, save for a faint spider line in the bottom right between the 5 and 6 markers. The case is in great vintage shape and remains thick and even. A newer jubilee bracelet was sourced with 502T end links (for holes cases), giving this sporty watch a touch of luxury.
