Those early sapphire GMTs are really interesting!

I really like the 16760 for its technological innovation, unique case and - today - lovely patina on some examples.

Mine was sold to Saudi Arabia and the dial has turned completely matte, as if it came ex-works like that.

Box and papers, this one was auctioned yesterday and reached a quite good price. I like this patina a lot. I wonder if one of us got it. Best, Nicolas ...

Wow what an amazing dial. It aged perfectly and the conditions are just unbelievable. Congrats to the new lucky owner of this gem.

I love those old Rolex boxes.

So understated and I think more special than the elaborate boxes of today. Thanks for sharing! Brandon

I agree. And they take less place! [nt]

I did see the result of that auction. Which one was it.

Also the usa version would come with a different box set. But. Oxes are no big deal and shops some time use their stock. The watch looks great. Considering black dial version can fetch 8-12k us. I am curious about this tropical one. ...

Which one? Yours? :))) [nt]
