First making its debut in 1959, the Rolex GMT-Master ref. 1675 is one that is adored by vintage Rolex collectors globally due to its iconic status and its timeless appeal. Early examples of the reference were fitted with glossy gilt dials and in 1966, Rolex transitioned the production of the dials to matte from glossy. With various examples of the matte dial throughout its course of production, these variants were broken into marks until its discontinuation of the reference in 1979, where Rolex once again introduced an upgraded glossy dial which were featured all the way until the end of the entire reference in 1984.

The present example Rolex GMT-Master ref. 1675 with a 5.3 million serial from circa 1977 features the rare and desirable MK III radial dial, which is distinguishable via its waffle-like luminous plots and its tall and narrow SCOC designation on the dial and the centred placement of the luminous plots compared to other variants from different marks. Offered in attractive overall condition, the present example boasts a well-preserved dial with nice luminous plots and a sharp case paired beautifully with a faded fuchsia bezel insert.
