NOTE: I am adding two sets of pictures. One set of pics made by me, today (except for a couple) and the other set on the next post are Proffesional pictures made by the original seller. Bob's Rolex Watches. Please note if you go to Bob's watches they still have these pictures as an example of 1969 Rolex GMT on a waiting list. If you float around the web and see those pictures and collate with these and think "ah....damnation....I caught a scammer!!!!." Relax, It is the same watch, it just happens to be mine. You are welcome to request a video conference to review the watch but ONLY if your actually interested as opposed to bored. Price: I have done extensive research on this model and condition...in truth I can't find one on this condition, aesthetic value with the bezel which alone has a 5g value +, and Serviced and on jubilee and just flat out amazing...but on trying I have seen a gravitational pull that is on the high teens. I am therefore pricing at $18.000 US dollars. Now $16.500 WAIT!!!! In this case I am open to a conversation...an educated conversation. I don't want to be on the wrong side of any equation. If you want to make an offer make it, and if you have solid comments about price please PM me and I will take into account. Please PM ME, don't just start a bid war on the thread for obvious reasons.

To me, yes - first met sergio when I started really getting into vintage heavy and once I saw his GMT - game over
Wow!! Thank you!! I originally thought you where talking generally about the 1675 reference. It is a beauty and I was very very lucky to get it.... And not so lucky to let it go.
A lot of questions and interest. No solid offer on the table. Make me an offer. Please. If you think you have a fair price that fits your budget PM me. I am often drunk and lack good judgement.....
Also, going to NYC on the 8th through 12th if there's anyone there on the fence I can bring it for an in person affair. Just wear protection and bring flowers.
So as a fair request from prospect buyers here is the certificate of authenticity. Please feel free to visit their website www.bobswatches.com for details on their service center and reputation. All of their watches are serviced prior to sale. In this case watch was not keeping time to my expectations so it was send back and re- serviced and adjusted. Actually on second thought I removed certificate of authenticity picture to avoid some guy from photoshopping it. But, it’s available upon request and will be included with watch. Keep questions Coming!!
Some good offers but nothing that hits the mark yet...keep it coming and remember, if you're in NYC I can bring the watch this weekend for you to see. Bump.
Ok ok, bad math.... an offer that falls within 90% of where it’s at. NEVER MIND, I just amended price.
