From the sublime to the ridiculous...
GMT 16710 'Time Capsule' from 2008. Bought new, never worn, stored in a safe for 8 years. Sold for approx $9.3K USD.
Then we have this 1675 being sold by a jewellery shop for $7K USD with the description: "This vintage Rolex wristwatch has been previously loved and completely restored to just like new" |

That is an interesting restoration on the GMT 1675.

in my opinion the 1675 looks great (obviously not restorerd but even never polished, hard to find a 1675 like this one)..
I probably misunderstood .. but the ridiculous price ever in my opinion is that of the 16710 , not that of 1675 that personally i like very much (this one I mean) |
