Rolex GMT-Master Spider dial / serviced / Patina 1985
This 1985 Rolex GMT-Master 16750 is something special. Not only does it feature the practical quickset date function thanks to the upgraded Caliber 3075, but it also carries one of the most charming aging quirks in vintage Rolex collecting: the Spider Dial plus amazing tritium and very nice faded bezel.
Caused by natural aging of the glossy lacquer finish, the dial displays a fine web-like cracking — unique to each piece and highly collectible. The effect is subtle, elegant, and tells the story of a watch that has lived. The case remains sharp with healthy bevels, and the aluminum Pepsi bezel has faded beautifully into those vintage pastel tones we all love. It comes on a Jubilee bracelet that wears like a dream.
This is vintage Rolex at its most charismatic: daily usable, yet full of soul.
