Is my 16753 considered Vintage?

Hi Guys,

I know there is a bit of conjecture about what is/isn't vintage but I just aquired this 16753 boxed set. (1986).......
I am absolutely thrilled with it (and yes, I know it's been polished) would like consider it a vintage piece, complimenting a couple of Rolex watches I own from the 1990's and a current model GMT Master II.

A car is normal given vintage status at the age of 30 and that's what this watch will be in a month or two.......
It is one of the last plexi crystals Sports Rolex's made.

If you feel it's not, then what feature would make it vintage?
I presume it could only be a 4 digit model number, non quick set or older style nipple dial.

Appreciate you comments.

Bob.
