Tough choice. I'm not a big truck guy (though this one looks sweet!) so I'm going with the Rolex. It's a really nice example of the 1675.

if the truck has a floor shift 4 speed, i would go with the Detroit iron over the SWISS.

out of interest, you have all these great and valuable watches so unless you really dont have any affinity to the 1675 at all...why not just buy the truck?

Geat watch!! I'm not a truck collector so I can't comment on the trade itself....
This may seem a bit off topic...but can we also see photos of the inner and outer boxes?

Hmm, maybe I can find you a cool truck today and trade for that sweet gmt! Keeping the gmt a no brainer to me, as it's much more unique than a classic truck here in the Midwest.
