My first Vintage/Older watch..
I recently got the itch to own my very first Vintage Rolex. I really want something rare, so I narrowed it down to 2 watches, both GMT..... Yep, you guessed it, Rootbeer or Pepsi... Been reading, researching and found that the Rootbeer with a jubilee bracelet and nipple dial is rarer than a Pepsi. With that said, buying something rare means, gotta pay to play!! Found this 16753 in great shape, now the question is, should I pull the trigger?
It's a watch only deal, but a verified seller.. Thanks in advance for your comments.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That watch is a grail for me! Maybe I'll trade my fat lady for one someday. In my limited knowledge that one looks good. Lume on the dial and hands match, bezel insert has serif fonts… looks original to me. edges on the bezel don't look rounded off…Looks good. I'd jump on it.
