Rolex GMT-Master , 16753

We are proud to present this very desirable Rolex GMT-Master II watch for sale in mint condition for its age, fully checked and authenticated in our accredited workshop.

Since its inception in 1954 the Rolex GMT-Master has been the master of the skies and has adorned the wrists of pilots, astronauts and aviation enthusiasts ever since. Originally designed in collaboration with Pan Am Airways, the Rolex GMT-Master was initially created for Pan AM and issued by them to their pilots and crews on long-haul flights. The key feature of the watch was that it allowed the wearer to simultaneously reference two different time zones with its unique 24 hour bi-rotational bezel. 

This reference, the 16753 was first introduced in the 1980's and was one of the last versions of the GMT-Master II to have a non-ceramic bezel. It comes set in a 40mm stainless steel Oyster case with 18ct yellow gold bi-directional bezel with black 24hr bezel insert. The black dial features applied tritium hour indexes and hands (indicated by 'Swiss - T < 25' print at the bottom of the dial), both edged in matching yellow gold to prevent tarnishing. The second time-zone hand is also gold with the dial is finished off with the classic date feature at 3 o’clock and protected by an acrylic crystal. The watch is powered by the automatic 3075 chronometer movement and comes fitted on a matching Rolesor (stainless steel / 18ct yellow gold) Jubilee link bracelet with the classic folding clasp.

Originally produced in 1986 and in mint condition for its age, this GMT-Master II comes with its original inner and outer box (outer box worn/damaged), GMT bezel booklet, factory service booklet, calendar card, swing tag, Oyster booklet and its original perforated warranty paperwork. This GMT-Master II is sold with our 12-month warranty and would be an incredible piece for any Rolex enthusiast.
