Nice

looks like a 1984 16750 to me is it?

Murphjup · 13 May 2010, 07:38 AM

Thank you all for your replies!!

Greekbum, Well I looked up the Serial Number it's a 837 Series... Which shows it would be a 1984.... so you are correct... I bought it lightly used in 1987... for $675...lol

But it has been a work horse ever since... I also have a New Black Bezel that came with the watch, that I never put on... I always liked the Pepsi look...

Arrgo · 13 May 2010, 10:19 AM

Simply beautiful! Nice to see a tool watch being used as it should. I hope you have many more years of use from it.

Chipmunk · 13 May 2010, 10:29 AM

Still looking good after all these years.

Murphjup · 13 May 2010, 10:32 AM

Thank you Guys!!

2th Dr · 13 May 2010, 10:33 AM

Awesome! Truly a tool watch!

DWdrummer · 13 May 2010, 10:35 AM

Awesome, so much nicer than one that is pristine in fact. I love a well used timepiece. It tells a story about its owner.

Wear it well for many more years!

JMIND · 13 May 2010, 10:54 AM

Beautiful, congrats!

Quicksilver · 13 May 2010, 06:57 PM

Great shot. Nice to see an un-pampered GMT.

Rebel · 13 May 2010, 10:05 PM

I sure do miss mine. Flipped it some time ago for another Rollie.

novae500 · 13 May 2010, 10:37 PM

i prefer coke, but looking for a pepsi or LV as my next purchase

buz-lh · 13 May 2010, 11:01 PM

Great shot of a classic. Every scratch and ding has a story.

ChicagoBigHouse · 13 May 2010, 11:58 PM

Awesome! I wish I could keep a watch long enough to have a daily wearer like that!

Lion · 14 May 2010, 12:02 AM

What a great looking watch which has been used as it was meant to.....I hope my Pepsi fares as well as yours in another 20 years!!!

dalip · 14 May 2010, 12:14 AM

That's commitment...from you and the watch! Great shot....

Quicksilver · 14 May 2010, 01:45 AM

It's amusing that here we all are, myself included, saying how great a worn Rolex looks, but the second we pick up a scratch wer'e devastated !!

Murphjup · 14 May 2010, 11:57 AM

Thank you all.. It has been a Worker Bee...
