Err buddy Terry...thanks for your relentless effort to rid off possible scams in eBay...you should be on eBay's payroll by now...
The listing of the 16750 is still there when Orchi last checked...
1. Look at these images posted in the listing...
i) The markers are NON-Rolex Originals being altered n stuck deliberately on the Dial(believed to be once Matte Dial) by using GLUE!!!(triagle markers of Matte Dial is longer just above the Rolex coronet)...6 n 9 o'clock markers(believed to be Seiko parts) are too BIG n FAT to be Rolex original parts...!
ii) At 2 n 6 o'clock markers...the top of the marker edge show signs of it being 'GLUED' ON also...similar to the rest of the round markers(NON Rolex)...!
iii) ALL markers are RE-Painted...
iii) The hands are clearly seen as being RE-Painted...also.
YET...the Power Seller claims...
"This is a black dial vintage GMT-Master "Pepsi" transitional is its original, untouched condition."
"Dial: Original black dial in good condition - untouched and original - aged to match hands"
iv) Here the clasps n the bracelet links are FAKED NON-Original Rolex parts...
YET the Power Seller claims...
"Band: Beautiful Rolex solid and heavy oyster bracelet. 11 links. Will fit wrist of up to 19cm. Excellent condition with reference 78360 and end piece reference 580"
v) Here the inner surface circumference on inside of the backcase...just above the 'Montres Rolex SA"...clearly show sign of abrasion with the winding rotor which has a loosen rotor shaft...
vi) Here on the image of the movement...the edges of the movement frame show sign of friction against the same bad winding rotor shaft...
YET the Power Seller claims...
"Working Condition: Yes
Serviced: Yes, freshly serviced
Comments: Pepsi Rolex GMT with Oyster band in original condition"
Note: Images n item descriptions were taken from eBay listing of a 16750 GMT Master watch...

Note: The next pictures were taken from a genuine 100% Rolex 16750 GMT Master...n other genuine Rolex WG Gloss n Matte Dials for early Ref 16750...that are "DATE"less.
