Rolex Gmt-,master, transitional model, ref 16750 quick set

A beautiful and sporty Rolex GMT-Master Reference 16750, introduced in 1980 as the direct successor to the Reference 1675 and produced for eight years. The 16750 represented a significant technical step forward for the GMT-Master line, receiving the improved Calibre 3075 with its quickset date function and hacking seconds feature, allowing the watch to be set to the exact second. This example bears an R-serial number, placing it among the last batch of 16750 references ever produced, and is preserved in superb condition with its original box, warranty, and tag.

Key Specifications

Collector's Note

The R-serial 16750 occupies a particularly interesting position in the GMT-Master collecting landscape. As one of the final examples of the reference produced before the introduction of the 16710, it combines the classic aesthetic of the 16750 with the most refined version of the Calibre 3075, benefiting from all the incremental improvements Rolex made to the movement over the course of the reference's eight-year production run. The quickset date and hacking seconds, features that the earlier 1675 lacked entirely, make the 16750 a significantly more practical watch for daily use while retaining the visual character and proportions that define the classic GMT-Master. The presence of the original box, warranty, and hang tag elevates this example to full-set status, a combination that collectors of transitional Rolex references actively seek and consistently reward.
