Description

The Rolex GMT Master Ref.1675 has been manufactured from 1960 until 1979 in gilt and matte dial versions. The matte dials started off in 1967 with the MK1 dial variant. This watch is from the MK3 batch from ca.1978 and features the rare Radial dial. On this dial variant the minute track has longer lines, hence the lume plots are positioned more towards he center of the dial. The MK3 is often paired with the full red GMT hand and Blueberry bezel. This particular piece is in very nice vintage condition and retains a great dial. A very collectible GMT, actually the only one which is noticeably different from the other matte dial variations.
