We have here a great example of a late Rolex GMT Master with Mk5 matte dial, the last version of the 1675 reference which ranged just before the end of the 70s. The dial is in pristine condition not showing any flaws. The Maxi lume plots have aged to a beautiful warm corn yellow color and are matching the hands. As if this was not enough the watch is fitted to the original C&I bracelet with full links in great condition. A beautiful Pepsi in very vibrant colors and in great condition.
