Vintage Rolex GMT-Master 1675 Pepsi
By Paul Altieri
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 1979 example is in overall beautiful and honest condition. It features a lovely "Pepsi" bezel that has remained vibrant over the years. The lume has aged to a lovely off white. creamy color adding to the vintage charm.
This watch has what collectors refer to as a Mark 4 dial and the defining characteristic of this is the placement of the "M" in "Master" over the "C" in chronometer. the right vertical bar sits right on top of it. If you are looking for a classic GMT with matte dial and vibrant "Pepsi" bezel this checks all the boxes.
