16750 with lots of pics and an interesting history!
Was on the wild for a 1675. Found one in the internet in a website called Mercado Livre and the seller didn't seem to know what he has.
I asked for more pictures and Henrique sent me some with awfull quality... He didn't know how to check the model or serial number in the watch case. The only thing I could check was the clasp code: H. I tought the bracelet might have been changed. So I decided to go ahead and buy it. I had one thing that made me confortable: if the watch wasn't good, I could return it and have my money back. When I received it was a surprise! The watch was a 16750, 8.1 million series, with matte and no "date" dial, perfectly matched patina and in very good condition. Unfortunatly he did not have the box or papers... he said it was his fathers watch, wich he didn't wear a lot, but loved it. When he past away the watch has been giving to him and now his going thru a hard time and had to sell it to pay for some bills... the only thing I guarented him is that I am going to take care of the watch as his dad and it is going to be in very good hands and care! What is your thought about this history?
