Description
The Gilti Pleasure - Offered here is a Rolex GMT Master 1675 with Gilt dial in the 1.4m Serial batch making it one of the last ones produced in 1966 before the first Matte dial was introduced. The case is very fat and possibly unpolished with beautiful proportions and beautiful factory bevels on the lugs. The crown guards are rich and thick. The dial is super glossy without any loss and the original Zinc Sulfide Tritium is original on dial and hands, has taken on a very warm light brown color. This watch is pure joy and full of character with its medley of colors, a raw GMT for those who enjoy history on the wrist.
