Show your 1675 and 16750 matte dial GMTs

Been really lusting for a matte dial GMT, as of late - leaning more towards the 'modern-vintage' 16750. I am currently in the process of clearing up some funds and the hunt for the next piece is not far off.

So, let's see your 1675/16750 matte dialed beauties

Thanks for posting.

Here's my 1675 from the late 60's, beautifully aged like a fine bottle of wine..

Jocke,

Where did you get the Coke bezel? I thought those were only for sapphire models?

If they make them for acrylic GMTs I want one.

Here is a pic of it and a side by side of a late 5 million serial 1675 I had a while back.
My 16750 is my favorite watch hands down.(not the nicest not the most $$ but my fav)

All beautiful pieces with some truly exceptional ones in among them, the shot with the black/red/silver Nato band made my jaw hit the floor . Thanks for sharing, this thread is fantastic eye-candy!.
