Both use an acryllic crystal.
The 1675 uses the slow beat 1575 while the 16750 uses a fast beat 3xxx movement. The 16750 has the quick set feature and interestingly WR went up to 100 meters on the newer version while the 1675 was 50 meters. In the latter days the 16750 used a WG surround dial while the 1675 was always matt sans WGs. 1675--Gilt and white 16750 |

Looks like the dial and hands are original. Insert was replaced at some point.

Can you post a picture showing the coronet?
That would help the experts. |

Early 16570 matte dial versions had the pretty cool charasteristic long coronet.
As far as i know these can't be found on the 1675. 18698_DSC_7469.jpg |

1675 (from top down): -Sweep/center seconds -Minute -Hour -GMT -Dial 16750 (from top down): -Sweep/center seconds -Minute -GMT -Hour -Dial Because of this, the pinions for the GMT hand differ in size/diameter. |
