Description & Historical Background

Born from the golden age of aviation, the Rolex GMT-Master was developed in the 1950s for Pan American Airways pilots navigating the new jet-set world of intercontinental travel. This specific reference 1675 from 1964 is a quintessential example of that legacy. It features the early and highly desirable pointed crown guards (PCG) and a glossy black "gilt" dial, where the text is printed in a warm, golden hue. The iconic red and blue "Pepsi" bezel, designed to distinguish between day and night hours in a second time zone, has faded beautifully, while the tritium lume has aged to a rich cream color, adding to its unique vintage character. A true tool watch and a collector's prize, this GMT-Master represents a pivotal moment in Rolex history.
