marrickvilleboy Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Hi all, Being offer a rolex 16750 Red / Blue insert for $3.2K. Looks to be all original, minor scuffs and scratches but nothing too serious. Service history unknown though. $3.2K seems like a fair deal, thought? thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsiadeCuba Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 got any pics? 3.2 is great deal. never seen it that low though. Im assuming its not a matte dial right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC109 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 With a bracelet that sounds like a bargain to me. Without, still a decent price. If you pass, let me know who's selling it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edbdbd Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 decent price. just make sure it's a gen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC109 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 +1. If it's all original, that price is probably about half of what it could get, which would have me equally suspicious and eager. decent price. just make sure it's a gen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theblueprince Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Ditto the above, good all original one's of these have been up for $7K+ from the usual suspects on TRF/VRF lately. Even average one's make $5k easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mendota Explorer Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 (edited) I see by your profile that you are an Aussie. Are you talking $3,200 AUS dollars or US dollars? Big difference.

panerai153 Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Sounds like a really nice deal. Matte dials are definitely worth more than the later dial versions. What serial range? And photos please. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marrickvilleboy Posted April 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Ok will do gents. Serial is 8 million which puts it to '83 I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sputim Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 This sounds like the deal of the year let us see some shots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marrickvilleboy Posted April 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Only issue is the endlinks are 593 (for submariner and explorer) and not 580. Otherwise, dial is original matte (looks like Mark I), and keeping great time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
automatico Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 16750... I had one in the early 1990s and like a dummy I sold it. Have a 1675 now and they look just alike, same case size, bezel etc. The 1675 has been put up so long that it will no longer run, needs c/o. The 16750 had applied tritium dots like a 1675 and R&B insert. All I have left is the bracelet and clasp from the 16750 but I had it changed over to tutone about 20 years ago. Paid $1350 for the 16570 in 'like new' condition 5-20-91 rom a rolex AD, it was a trade in. We need a time machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
