Help me with Rootbeers...

Can anyone tell me what years the brown dialed GMT's (gold or tt) were made. I can't seem to find any ranges.

I'm seriously considering one, but have no idea.

Thanks,

The oldest "ROOTBEER" I've seen on the internet was a ref 1675 with serial no. 553xxxx, this was with wannabuyawatch in LA. This is 14k/SS with its original Jubilee. As to the latest, I know that they had it with the ref 16753 which was discontinued in 2007.

Some early rootbeers (1675) come with a matt dial rather than the more commun glossyish dial.

Sorry, this should read "16713" rather than "16753".
