Gilt Dial
Ok I know this sounds silly but what is a Gilt Dial ? How do you identify it ? The 1675 is also a watch passed down to me from my dad I think he bought it in the mud to late 60’s the 16700 I bought in 1998 -99 Thanks for your help
Thanks!
Ok got it! So I do have a classic on my wrist!with the riveted bracelet and the gilt Dial! Thanks Dad! Love you !
I always prefer the 16700 for the quick date, never GTM II 16710 ! The 16700 is a fantastic watch and good to have in colection.
But this is a very personal decision, because i really dont need a second time, but i change my watches a lot. So it is easier with quick date to set the watch.
Both are good in their own way
1675 gilt is a classic. The 16700 is the last GMT Master made by Rolex. Both have their appeal.
