A vintage Rolex GMT-Master 1675/3 from 1978 with the beloved "nipple dial". This is one of our favourite bi-colour watches ever made and a true statement on the wrist. The watch is kept in razor sharp condition with bevels still clearly visible and furthermore equipped with a perfect bezel and clean dial with mirror gloss. The tritium hands set an index aged evenly and adds more warmth to this stunner.

Introduction

Rolex GMT-MasterFasten your seatbelts for the story of the Rolex GMT-Master. Aviation company Pan-Am requested Rolex to create a wristwatch that would display multiple time-zones simultaneously, as their flights got longer; crossing multiple time-zones. Rolex came up with the GMT-Master (‘GMT’ stands for ‘Greenwich Mean Time’) in 1954. The watch features a date-function and an extra hour hand (with triangle) that points out the second time zone on the bi-directional turning, 24hour bezel.Still linked to aviation and although meant for professional use, it enjoys a much wider fan base ever since it first saw light. Over the years it underwent some changes and there are so many wonderful variations of this all-time Rolex classic. Some GMT’s are great as a single purchase, others are a wonderful addition to any collection and some of them can be considered as the crowning glory.
