Description: Vintage Rolex GMT-Master 1675

The GMT Master is Rolex’s signature pilot’s watch, complete with dual-time capabilities. It came to market in 1955, with ref. 1675 following shortly after in 1959. It’s one of the most sought-after vintage Rolex watches on the secondary market because it’s instantly recognizable with its 24-hour bezel and dedicated GMT hand. The Rolex 1675 was also notably the first GMT Master to use crown guards. Rolex initially used glossy dials in the 1675 until around 1966 and switched to matte dials. 

This circa 1978 example is in overall nice, honest vintage condition. This watch has what collectors refer to as a Mark 5 dial and the defining characteristic of this is the tall coronet and the placement of the "M" in "Master" over the "C" in chronometer, it divides the C and M. This watch has a really crisp vibe with the even white marshmallow colored lume and black bezel insert. It's amazing how the black bezel gives this watch a whole different look compared to the "Pepsi," These black bezel GMT's tend to fly a little under the radar and this example has a lovely insert with "fat font" numbers adding to the lovely athestic.

Second purchase from Bobs

Well represented watch in excellent condition. Super fast shipping. My second purchase from Bobs but not my last. Their watches seem to be in better condition than many of the others I’ve seen online.

Vintage 1971 Rolex GMT-Master 1675 'Pepsi' Insert

The whole transaction process with Bob's is always top notch. The vintage watch was functioning as expected, the case is relatively strong with minimal polishing, and the dial is a beautiful service dial as expected.

I have worn this watch everyday for 47 years, had it cleaned every 8 or so years, had the bezel replaced with the new one back in the 80s. Paid $400 in Switzerland in 1970. This is the greatest lifetime deal ever!!
