Gmt 16750 opinions?
I have been offered a gmt 16750 price has not been agreed, but received these photos. They have been resized so apologies for the quality. Its described as a full set, but as you can see from one of the pics the certificate is punched but there is no dealer stamp.[ATTACH][ATTACH]Screenshot_20210607-210400_Gmail.jpg[/ATTACH][/ATTACH] TIA

I am no expert, but the pointer on the GMT hand.... is that black? I don’t think I have ever seen one like that. I have seen them with patina, and even missing, but not that color. But, let the guys who are a lot smarter then I am talk about it.

Need better high-res pics with the hands not covering the Rolex text. Also photos of the numbers between the lugs at 12 and 6.
Can't tell you much from these photos. |

Yes. I was going to say that there is some blackened lume left in the corners, with most of it missing.

Thanks for all your input what do people think about the dial, the patina on the hands doesn't seem the dials. Any thoughts?

It’s probably original but no one can give you an opinion based on the photos you have. The Lume from that hand could be melted on the dial somewhere. Break out A better camera.
There are tons of scams, ways to fool buyers. This group of guys can tell you exactly what you have if you provide real photos. |

Some papers are not stamped. just make sure the certificate is authentic, paper type matches the period, punched holes type etc. You will need new hands or to relume them. As above, clearer and more pictures needed for good opinions.
