The glossy maxi dial boasts a fine patina to the luminescent (Tritium!) elements, and the Oyster case is the classic 39mm that collectors have come to love about vintage Rolex. When you add a 62523H\/450 Jubilee bracelet, you get a winning combination indeed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Story\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe Reference 16753, released in the 1980s, provided a fresh new look to the GMT line. The combination of steel and gold perfectly encapsulated the preppy stye that prevailed in that period. Moreover, this shifted Rolex into the luxury sphere, which established an upward sales trend that infused much needed life into the manufacture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eVisually and technically, the 16753 stands out from other iterations of the GMT Master.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe glossy black dial and painted bezel give the watch a sleek appearance that’s magnified by the flashes of gold. But these changes didn’t only go skin deep—a new movement was fitted inside that had hacking capabilities as well as a quickset date. Sleek \u003ci\u003eand\u003c\/i\u003e functional, the 16753 a GMT for the sophisticated traveler.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rolex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":8251712700503,"sku":null,"price":8350.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/1255\/products\/Rolex_GMT_Master_16753_AS02617_2.jpg?v=1527609684","url":"https:\/\/www.analogshift.com\/products\/rolex-ref-16753-gmt-master-as02617","provider":"Analog:Shift","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
