New Jubilee for the GMT

Just purchased this 62510 for my 16750. Wow! I had never tried on a jubilee bracelet...soooo comfy. This one will be getting much more wrist time. Amazing, but this 80's watch is running an impressive +2sec/day. Rolex sure know how to make 'em.

That's what sold me on the watch! Also the fact that it came from one of our own vintage TRF sellers...Here's another shot showing the chamfers.

Thanks, Mikko! What's nice about the 16750 is that it retains some vintage charms, such as acrylic crystal and lug holes, while also having a quickset date and fast beat movement. Best of both worlds.
