    Hi All,

    I am selling this gorgeous Rolex GMT ref 1675 with a tropical gilt dial from 1965. Here are the details:

    Dial: excellent tropical glossy gilt dial that shows no cracking nor spider webbing in the mirror-like lacquered surface. The color change to brown has taken place below the lacquer and parts of the dial look coppery in sunlight. The tritium hour markers have aged to a creamy yellow color. The tritium lume in the hands is lighter in color than the hour markers. Both the hour markers and hands shine brightly when exposed to UV light and drop off quickly at the same rate. The triangle on the GMT hand is oxidized (in the best way). All hands had their lume professionally stabilized by Giovanni Passalacqua formerly of the Rolex Service Center in San Francisco.

    Case: Excellent 40mm stainless steel case that has been previously polished. It still remains thick with clearly visible bevels with light wear. The bezel works correctly and the insert is faded and shows wear. Inside of the case back is stamped IV.65 and the serial number is 1,330,xxx. The watch comes on an excellent and tight Swiss Rolex rivet bracelet dated II65 with 80 end pieces.

    Movement: excellent Rolex caliber 1570 is running well and keeping good time, service history is unknown.

    The Deal: My price was $33,500, now $29,900 with overnight shipping from Fedex and third-party insurance from Parcel Pro. Reasonable offers and trades are always welcome. I will accept payment via wire transfer only for this watch. You get a 3 day inspection period and may return the watch for any reason. You'll receive a full refund minus shipping and insurance costs. My name is Michael and I can be reached at 415.323.3938. Face to face transactions in a secure location in the Union Square neighborhood of San Francisco are possible by appointment. Happy to provide references as needed.
