1965 Rolex GMT-Master 1675 Gilt Dial PCG Case
The most vibrant colors.
$OLD
OVERVIEW
What I love about a Rolex 1675 GMT (especially the gilt dial ones) is the potential for so many different vibrant colors on one watch. We have sandy peach lume over a dense black dial, strawberry red GMT hand, bright silver print, then teal blue, and copper orange. Considering that all Pepsi GMTs come out of the factory pretty standard, this one has evolved quite a bit.
CONDITION NOTES
CASE: Well worn but sharp (which I believe to be unpolished) case featuring thick lugs and its original shape and chamfers. Always nice to see an honest and well loved case. Pointed Crown Guard (PCG) cases can be found in serial numbers 1.1million or higher which example is.
DIAL: Galvanic gilt dial with deep yellow sandy lume and beautiful silver print. lacquer is still very glossy and is in overall excellent condition.
HANDS: Excellent handset with matching lume as the dial. All lume glows brightly under UV and dissipates quickly.
MOVEMENT: Clean movement and running as well as a vintage Rolex should with high amplitude and accuracy.
