Looks great & that faded bezel sets it off.

Here is a better photo of the dial. The fade goes from 1:30-3:00 "southwest" across the dial down to about 6:00-8:30. However, the circle under the sweep of the hour hand is not faded.

Congrats!!

Nice watch..congrats! I would leave the watch original. If you want perfect...buy new.

Did you get a full set (B&P) with it? I have been looking at adding a fat lady to my meager collection but have not seen many full set 16760's around.

NKflyer,
What clasp in on your bracelet?
do u have a picture of it?
The one I just bought has the Sub/Oyster clasp, not the GMT type..
As I understand, many 16760 had Sub type clasps.

It has a 93150 bracelet which does have the sub style clasp. A couple of members here reassured me that the 93150 was indeed an option on the 16760 and the date code on the clasp matches the watch's serial. There is also a very distinguishing square indentation on either side of the wetsuit end of the clasp. Hope this helps.
