Rolex 16753 Root Beer

The Rolex 16753 Root Beer—yeah, that’s the one with the warm two-tone shimmer and cult following—is a standout in GMT history, mixing late '70s flair with practical function. Originally launched as part of the GMT-Master series, it earned its nickname from the rich brown dial and bezel combo. At Tropical Watch, we love how it bridges dressy and sporty without trying too hard, and honestly, the patina just keeps getting better with age.
