1983 Rolex GMT Ref 16750 "Matte Dial"
Рет қаралды 13,043
Күн бұрынThe Rolex GMT-Master ref. 16750 has steadily grown in popularity in recent years. In this episode of our series What’s On My Wrist, Craft + Tailored’s Cam Barr goes deep on what features set these transitional-period GMTs apart from the pack, and what makes them desirable enough to have developed their own cult following amongst GMT devotees. Like most transitional examples, there’s a special thing that happens when an iconic design embodies the best of its past and the best of its future, and these watches nail that trick in a spectacular way.

I have an all original '83 16750 "matt dial" that I purchased new in '83 at the now defunct China Fleet Club in Hong Kong (the old British Military Exchange). It was my one watch as a professional pilot for 30 years, and I wore it 24/7, 365 for the first 22 years. It was water tested in hot steamy showers every day, and has NEVER leaked. All original (dial, hands and bracelet) and one pilot owned, full set with everything! This is/was the true sleeper classic, since unless you look at the 12 and 24 four hand stack-up, you cannot tell it from a 1675. It now stays safe, worn for special occasions and my black dial Sky Dweller is my now go to pilot's (retirement) watch.

I love both dials but if I need to choose just one, I prefer the matte one. Between the current GMT and this GMT from 1983, I also prefer this model, the current one has too much shine for my liking. Perfect video and many thanks for sharing.

Absolute love the vintage Rolex’ses - have ben hunting the right 1680 for a long time now - great video thank you. A quick and perhaps a bit strange question :) Where is you shirt from? - Super cool and it fits the vibe of a 1680’er vintage military sub perfect 😄.

Cam Barr mentions 1979 to 1984 as the production years for the GMT 16750. Most online sources I've seen have a very different production range of 1981 to 1988 for this transitional bridge between the 1675 and the next generation. Indeed, my 16750 dates, by case serial and clasp code, to 1981 which, based on my fairly extensive research, makes this the first of the 16750's limited production run. I'd love to see proof, such as a serial certificate or at least a case serial/clasp code, that shows the reference 16750 being produced or sold before 1981. If so, I'll stand to be corrected.

What is the price range on a watch like this
@craftandtailored 2 жыл бұрын
It depends on condition and if the watch is complete or not but the early matte dials are approaching the $20k range with glossy dials in the high $14k to mid $15k range. Hope that helps!
