Rolex GMT-Master Reference 16758 in 18K Yellow Gold Unpolished w/ Box
The Rolex GMT-Master was originally designed for Pan Am pilots in the 1950s and continues to be a flagship model for Rolex to this day. The reference 1675 was introduced in 1959 and remained in production until 1980.
This is an extremely attractive 16758 featuring an 8.3M serial number, dating to circa 1984. The aluminum bezel insert is a beautiful brown. The case appears to be unpolished and is so crisp. The dial with nipple hour markers is incredible and in fantastic condition.
It does not come with papers. It does come with a box and catalog. We do not know the service history, but it is running well. It recently passed a 5 bar water resistance test.
To learn more about the Rolex GMT-Master you can watch the ‘Reference Points: Understanding The Rolex GMT-Master' video and corresponding article I produced. You can also read Charlie Dunne’s comprehensive article ‘Collector's Guide: The Rolex GMT-Master Reference 1675 In Steel’.
It is so rare to find an example of this watch in this condition. We think whoever buys it is going to be extremely pleased to own it!
