Thoughts on this 1675
I'd like a good 1675 GMT but finding one in the UK is hard. What do you all think of this?

Service dial and a replacement insert. You will want to see the serial # on the case to know what dial the watch was born with. Bracelet, ends and clasp are correct by description but I don't know from the limited photos, others will. Same with the box as is not in the photos but, again, someone here will be able to verify based on what's visible. Having just been serviced is a bonus, the papers are nice but only reflect this service.
An interesting topic was just had here about 1675s in what I am guessing is your price range- https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=556556 Enjoy the hunt! |

The watch has a service dial, service hands, service insert and service bracelet. The price is close to $13,000 (in US dollars) if I'm not mistaken. For that price, you would be able to find a very nice, original GMT 1675.
If you don't mind a watch with full service parts, I would expect that you could find a 1675 for around $7,000 (US). Good luck.
