This GMT-Master is in good, honest vintage condition with wear consistent with age. The case is in good condition with some wear and scratches. The bezel insert is a later, blue back service replacement with scratches and some wear; it has faded slightly. The "Mark II" dial is overall good condition with patina. The bottom of the dial around 5 to 6 o'clock shows some wear from a previous hand drag. The lume on the dial have developed patina and aged to a captivating sandy hue, some of the lume plots show wear that further enhances its beach-like aesthetic. Some of the plots have aged darker than others. The hands are later, lumiova service replacements and have developed some patina. The folded bracelet is in great condition with some scratches and wear, it has a bit of stretch between the links which is not uncommon for this style bracelet. The crystal has some wear and nicks on the edge.
The GMT Master is Rolex’s signature pilot’s watch, complete with dual-time capabilities. It came to market in 1955, with ref. 6542 and the 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. Over the years Rolex made many different variations of the 1675 and this example features a matte "Mark II" dial. The best way to distinguish the mark 2 dial from other matte dials is the font, thickness, and spacing of the word "Rolex" on the dial.
This watch has a great vintage look and feel with the iconic "Pepsi" bezel and folded link Oyster bracelet.

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.
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 really like this beautiful 1675 with fuchsia bezel.
Quick e-mail responses, systematic
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!!
