An attractive example transitional model Rolex GMT ref 16750 circa 1985 with a nice vintage character. Featuring an especially fine condition 4.4 million serial # service case which was replaced by Rolex during a service. With an original matte black dial with ivory color tritium lume plots and matching tritium lume hands. With a lightly faded red and blue Pepsi bezel insert, and original 78360 heavy Oyster bracelet with 593 endpieces and deployant clasp.

This is the short lived transitional model introduced in 1981 that followed production of the 1675 GMT model but with an upgraded quickset 3075 movement and with acrylic crystal. When the GMT II model was introduced in 1989, with independently set hour hand, the 16750 model was then fitted with a sapphire crystal, and renamed the GMT 1 with ref 16700. The earliest example model 16750’s continued the matte finish dial as seen on the 1675s, while later models like the current example feature a gloss black dial with white gold lume plot surrounds.

Service Cases. The current case is a 4.4 million number which is the serial # range for service cases replaced by Rolex during service. Interestingly, the inside case back is engraved with both the new serial # as well as the original 8.1 million serial # to memorialize the original serial #.

The current example has been carefully inspected and is in excellent mechanical and cosmetic condition and is being offered with our 1 year warranty of accurate time keeping and operation.
