FS - Rolex GMT Master II 16760 aka The Fat Lady

[roger0770]

Yes, I got into graduate school! Thus, I am selling the watch to help funding my graduate school education. This is my favorite piece, and took me awhile to find. I am hoping the next owner will take great care of her as I move on to the next chapter. I present you the Rolex GMT Master II, Model Reference # 16760.

As many of you know, the The Ref. 16760 is the first GMT Master II. It is nicknamed "Fat Lady" because of its extra thick case. It is the first GMT with white gold indices borders and sapphire crystal, and stainless steel was the only option. It was also only offered with the red/black bezel (coke), which was also a new combination from the red/blue bezel (Pepsi). It carries caliber 3085, which allows the 24-hour hand to be independently adjustable. The seconds hand only stopped when the crown was pulled all the way out -> accurate time could be kept while setting the watch. Of course, the extra large crown gards.

The watch was serviced in May 2012 at the Rolex Service Center in Taiwan. During my recent trip in December 2012, I also took the watch to be adjusted since it was running a little faster. The package will include,

R serial GMT Master II in mint condition - fresh out of RSC
Time period correct Rolex outer and inner box
Time period correct booklets
Appraisal done by the GIA
Service records and receipts from San Francisco Rolex Service Center
Service record and receipt from Taiwan Rolex Service Center
Hang tag
Polishing cloth

The dial was replaced with the so called "stick dial" during an early service before I acquired it. I am asking $5,500 + PayPal fees. Please email me and let me know if you have any questions. "[email protected]"
