    A watch friend of mine came to visit me at home and he showed his latest catch, a Rolex 5513 he bought in Japan. He also showed me the Rolex GMT 1675 he acquired 2 months ago and was complaining about having a hard time matching the watch with his wardrobe. He asked if I have another vintage Rolex Sub that we can swap. I said I have a 1966 Tudor Sub 7928 that might interest him. I showed him the watch and fell in love with it. He agreed to a swap but I said his GMT is more valuable than my Tudor so I offered to give him an additional cash of $2,000 which he gladly accepted.

    The Rolex GMT appears to have a MK2 dial and is in very good condition. The red color on the bezel insert has faded to a pinkish or fuchsia shade.

    Congrats E!
    Have you popped the bezel to see if the insert is a blue or red back?
