This thread is killing me... I am dying to find the perfect faded matte 1675 with fat lugs... but my quest has been fruitless thus far. Hopefully one will pop up soon...at least for now I have some nice examples that prove to me they do indeed exist! Great watch!

Trust me, it'll grow on you more every time you wear it. Mine has reached a cult status with me and it's the only watch I'll ever own that will positively never be sold, but of course it was my first Rolex and this loyalty has matured over more than four decades. Besides all that there are the comfort and readability factors, both top tier.
