Rolex GMT Master Yellow Gold "Matte Nipple Dial" ref.1675 from 1971

The GMT-Master stands as a timeless symbol among watches; Rolex introduced it in 1954 with the intention of providing pilots a timepiece capable of displaying two time zones. Following the original reference 6542, the reference 1675 emerged as its successor. The 1675 came in several variations, including the one in question from 1971, encased in 18k yellow gold, boasting a distinctive brown matte dial you can only find in early 1675 gold models. The bezel faded to a rich purple that matches the brownish hue of the dial perfectly, you wont find another one like this anywhere else.
