Transitional Rolex Sport Watches "The Matte Dials"

[@SoCalWatchReviews]

Another great video brother! a transitional Sub is my absolute grail, thanks for featuring these Cam! Miguel

[@sampezzimenti6590]

This period was in my opinion the BEST time for Rolex. They had the opportunity to go any way they wanted with their watches and to continue the ‘tool watches’ line and evolve them the way they did, was perfect

[@craftandtailored]

could not agree more!

[@sampezzimenti6590]

BEST video to date! Super informative and not to mention featuring my favourite watch! 16750 quickset 😍

[@benhutto6587]

This is a great channel. I have been catching up with the 5512-5513, and the 16800s. So many good choices! I appreciate your context.

[@Joe-xo3xy]

Thanks Cam, this is definitely a tutorial which answers the question "Why should I buy a Rolex"; Their ability to evolve the dive watch/tool watches, striving for excellence and of course, selling more watches, LOL!!!

I always thought the triple six had drilled lug holes on the case

[@williamjernigan8970]

Noticed the corroded hands on the 16800. My 1981 came with corroded hands. I sent it back to Rolex twice for replacement. The last time in 1983. Any opinion has to the effect on its value?

[@craftandtailored]

Were the hands replaced with Luminova hands?

[@ir0nhead11]

what's the name of your intro song

[@chrisanthony3678]

Video posted 29 minutes ago and the watches are sold already?

[@craftandtailored]

These ones go really quick! They were live on the site for a couple days before the video premiered in this case though. We do a weekly mailer with new additions as well to get the latest as soon as they are posted.

Hi Cam, I have owned my matt dial 16750 since new, purchased in Hong Kong in '83. I have always thought that it improved on the 1675 with 1.) the newer 4 hertz movement, 28,800 vph, 2.) quick set date, 3.) hacking seconds, and 4.) 100M versus the 50M of water resistance of the 1675. And yes, I know that the later 1675's had hacking seconds, about half the production run. Bottom line a better functioning and more wearable watch with ALL the aesthetics of the 1675. Can't find a nice 1675 at the right price? Get a nice matt dial 16750 cheaper, and a wearable vintage watch. BTW it's never been to Rolex, so I still have the original ivory patinated dial and hands, and with a recent cosmetic service from Beau at LA Watch Works, it looks like new. It's now on it's third bezel insert, and third acrylic crystal, and I have ALL the old parts! You should see the fade on my original insert! Full set, (everything) and one professional pilot owned and worn for 37 years.

[@craftandtailored]

That's soooo cool!! I take it you are the professional Pilot! Amazing watches indeed!! glad you enjoyed it!

[@John-en2wu]

Tough choice, but if I had to pick only one, 16750 matte dial all day long.

[@jimmysplit7729]

Thanks Cam, great episode! The 16750 is gorgeous, been considering one for myself. Cheers mate

[@craftandtailored]

They are one of my favorites that is for sure!! you going to go glossy or matte dial?

[@jimmysplit7729]

I have a very nice glossy 1675 from 66 so I think I’d go a matte dial, there’s a nice honest one here in Melbourne I’ve got my eye on but I’ll have to wait a bit, already bought 2 watches this month😬, gotta stretch em out to keep the better half happy lol Cheers Cam

[@williamstalvey6920]

Great watches as always!!!

[@craftandtailored]

Glad you enjoyed! this was a fun one to produce!

[@alecc4006]

16750 with glossy dial and plastic crystal is my choice
