My 16710 & 16750

Felt inclined on a night-flying day to snap a few photos in the mid-morning :) Enjoy!

I Have a 16700 which is my daily wear sport rolex and a couple 16750's with matte dials. There is just something about the 16750 matte dials and plastic crystals that sets them.

Nice pair! Congrats!

They sure do Carl.
I really like the jubilee bracelet on the Pepsi.
I must have a look around for one.

Just can't get enough of my creamy 16750....

I'm such a self-professed WIS I went down to the RSC today and bought period-correct 580 endlinks (previously had the newer 510b endlinks that didn't fit perfectly). Despite the pretty penny paid, the correct endlinks just look terrific!

More wrist pics of my 16750 with gorgeous patina I just took:

I really dig the matching patina on the hands and dial of your 1675! Does it have the original date wheel (silver colored with open 6/9) as well?

Yes, it looks and wears very different from the more sporty, rugged oyster bracelet. 62510H marked 50 on the ends with matching 502T endlinks for the no lughole case.

It's a 16750 with a 7.4 mil serial circa early 80s so it originally came with a white date wheel with open 6's and 9's!
