1675/3 Root beer on SS Oyster?

Hey guys,

So, I'm trudging through GMT pics online, and I see this:


Which looks a lot like a root beer on a stainless oyster band! Have any of you seen this done before?

That is a combination I've dreamed of puting together for a long time. A two tone nipple dial with all stainless bracelet and a black bezel insert. Seeing that pic I would jump on a root beer version too. If I could find a good nipple dial sub or GMT I would go for it.

Love the look. Amazing how the dark brown tiger eye dial makes it work. Don't think it would work with the lighter brown sunburst root beer dial that came later.

I thought you might like this thread discussing just that topic. Aside from the Rootbeer color combo in general, (of which I am a fan!) the stainless oyster with TT rootbeer head seems highly polarizing, Hahaha: https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=673210
