ABOUT THIS WATCH
- The reference 1675 GMT-Master was in production from 1959 to 1980, making it one of the longest-running Rolex models
- This reference featured on the wrist of Marlon Brando in the 1979 movie 'Apocalypse Now'
- Many changes were applied to this fan-favourite reference over its 20-year life-cycle, including the introduction of matte dials, as we see here on this example from 1972
- The 40mm stainless-steel case features the iconic “Pepsi” bezel with a 24-hour scale, which, when referenced against the GMT hand, allows the wearer to track two time zones simultaneously
- The hour markers and hands are filled with tritium and have faded to a warm patina over time
- Housed underneath the screw-down case back is the in-house calibre 1570 movement, which has Chronometer certification and a 48-hour power reserve
- This example is paired with a Jubilee bracelet, giving it a slightly dressier aesthetic.
