Rolex Watch

DESCRIPTION This Rolex GMT 16750 Tiger-Eye is a super attractive vintage watch from 1986 with a two-tone stainless steel and yellow gold case. In 1955, Rolex developed the very first GMT-Master in cooperation with Pan American World Airways and marketed it as a tool watch for professional pilots. The simultaneous display of two time zones was a pioneering and very useful function, especially for intercontinental flights. During its long history, the GMT Master has undergone a series of design updates and is still in production. Today, it is not only pilots who appreciate this extraordinary wristwatch, but all travelers who are passionate about watches. Vintage versions of the legendary GMT are highly prized by collectors and are among the most popular vintage watches. The first two-tone version of the GMT was the reference 1675/3 introduced in 1970. Here we offer the successor reference 16753, which is powered by the improved caliber 3075, equipped with a quick date and hacking seconds. The Rolex GMT-Master 16753 is also known as “Tiger’s Eye” due to its similarity in color to the tiger’s eye gemstone. This watch has a breathtaking look, created by the warm golden colors. The dial has a special charm thanks to the warm brown-gold surface, which takes on different shades depending on the viewing angle. The original tritium luminous dial features a golden patina that matches the dial perfectly. The 24-hour rotating bezel also contributes to the magnificent look of this GMT Master. This watch is worn, but unpolished: a condition favored by most vintage collectors. A sharp, full-profile case and impeccable dial make this GMT a treasured collector’s watch. Thanks to the few signs of wear on the case and bracelet, you don’t have to worry about wearing the watch every day. The green Rolex hologram is still visible on the caseback, further testament to its rarely worn condition.
