·If it's good enough for Dirty Harry, it's good enough for me! Rolex 1675 GMT Master Root Beer, 3.4M serial from 1971 with 1-72 14kt/ss jubilee bracelet with 250 endlinks.
Case: Evidence of polishing, lugs are nice and thick, with the 4 and 7 o'clock lugs having some wear at the tips as pictured. The crown guards are fat and even. The serial and reference numbers are clearly visible. The case is a perfect candidate for a recut or rock it as-is.
Dial: Matte nipple dial is in excellent condition as pictured with no chips or discoloration.
Hands/Crown/Crystal: Hands appear original and match the dial patina, medium eggshell. Crown screws down tight. Crystal has been polished as expected and light surface scratches.
Movement: Keeping good time, strong power reserve, and smooth winding. Service history unknown. No movement shots at this time, as I cannot get the back off with my ball. Open 6s and 9s date wheel.
Bracelet: Well worn, and most likely original 14kt/ss jubilee bracelet dated 1-72. There a good amount of stretch, but it is functional and comfy. The clasp has wear as pictured, and is a bit finicky, but snaps tight. 250 end links.
Overall, this is a great watch to wear as found or with a little TLC will be a stunner. Asking $7995 OBRO shipped in the CONUS, payment by wire. Feel free to PM or email watchknut AT gmail.com.
