16750 Now a Red/Blue

Thanks to Steve Mulholland I was able to source both a black and Red/Blue bezel NOS for my 16750. I couldn't wait to get the Red/Blue on it and take a picture. I got a little carried away but please indulge me. Thanks Steve for all your help, you are a super individual and a real asset on this forum. BTW, Steve has found an oyster bracelet for me so now I'll have a 4 in 1.

Looks great Buz, congrats. I can't decide if I like the black/burgundy or the blue/red combo more, they both looks great. Man, the classic GMT II is hard to beat no matter what combo you have going.

Thanks so much everyone. Mike was super when I was considering this watch, taking his time to look at it and give me his opinion, which I value highly. Steve, you're the man, where's my bracelet? I know it's on it's way. Dan, as much as I wanted to pull the trigger on that Big Block, I didn't. The little voice said hang on for a while and enjoy what you've got. Andrew, Richard, Scott, Karis, Jim,Rob,hflee, Trevor and other Mike, thanks for the nice words. Trevor, I like the red/black too as that is what came on my 16710, but from what I understand they were never offered on the 16750. I think maybe the 16760 was the first with the red/black bezel. Selah.

This why i love to own a sub..yu can just change the bezel inserts and have a new looking sub...you can have 3-4 inserts and have 1 sub and make it look like you have 4 subs...

Make sure you wear that watch when we have the chance to meet for a beer or six.

Beautiful GMT Buz - yep, the options that the different inserts and bracelets give you with a GMT is great....like having several Rolexes!
