After your 1675/16750 help here is the result

After taking a year off, i thought for sure my next watch was going to be a 5513. But I have also really liked the 1675, as being one of the classics. The dillema about selling something to buy one having been solved by my keeping my black datejust....and with the help of the forum, I found a nice 1675.

However, a few people, much smarter than I - on more than one occasion hinted that they prefer the 16750, matte dial, including 2 sellers of 1675's. I still want a 1675, for its age, but have settled on this for this purchase.



I am happy

More pics when it arrives next week...hope I did good :)
Thanks everyone

Awesome! I'm looking for the same thing. How much did you pay? Box papers?

AAARRGGHH. IM SO STUPID

This is a 16750. That was the point of the post. Is there a way to edit it?

I didn't realize I made a typo until I just retread my own post.
