Description: Rolex GMT-Master 1675 Root Beer
The reference 1675 is the second iteration of the original GMT Master and was offered in many variations. A handful of metal options were produced under ref. 1675, including the steel and gold like the example we have here. It pairs the two-tone finish with a beautiful brown dial with brown and gold bezel. However, what really sets this watch apart from other vintage Rolexes on the market are the charming yellow gold nipple hour markers and overall “Root Beer” motif.
This example is in overall great, honest condition and the bezel has faded throughout giving the watch a unique look. These two-tone “Rootbeer” GMT’s are the perfect blend of casual and sporty, great for all occasions.
