While reference 6542 and 1675 were sometimes cased in precious metals, these were infrequent occurrences. Indeed, it was not until the arrival of reference 16758 in 1979, that the GMT-Master was set with rubies, diamonds and sapphires, thus inspiring its nickname, ‘SARU’. Heavy, robust and lavishly set with either a diamond-sapphire, or diamond-sapphire-ruby bezel, reference 116759SA (without rubies) reinterprets the original SARU with a white gold case, providing a dressy alternative to the classic stainless steel GMT- Master II. This example is one of the most prestigious versions and is set with a pavé dial, sapphires and diamonds on the bezel, along with diamonds set on the center links. Preserved in excellent condition, this timepiece is accompanied by its original accessories such as its original guarantee and presentation box.
