A few outdoor pictures of an unusual Rolex GMT 1675.

The so called Radial Dial, or Mini Dial. This is a watch I already posted, last winter, but the pics I took were indoor, and with a flash. The specificity of this Rolex 1675 is that the round indexes are centered, as well as the writings, details which gi...  

A great piece...and as you say unusual...around '77?

Now, I need to find a 1675 Radial Dial, Red 24 hour Hand, and bmue bezel in the same watch, to go deeper in the unusual. Best, Nicolas.

There's something about the Blue-Red (Pepsi) Bezel ....

That I think it's too loud but very charming... Very nice picture, as always, Nicolas... And of course a really fine example of the 1675 Radial dial Cheers, Sam

Let's say that this is not the most discrete part of the watch, as well as ...

The cyclop... But I wouldn't see a Rolex GMT without these 2 details, which are true parts of the Rolex DNA, IMO. Best, Sam. Nicolas.

Drooling..such a beauty! [nt]

Did you get the Vintage Rolex GMT virus, yet? Best, Nicolas. This message has been edited by amanico on 2011-08-31 06:04:54

I'm glad I don't live in Paris.

Otherwise it would be impossible to resist. For the time being I shall vicariously enjoy yours and take pleasure in viewing the beautiful pictures you post. Keep them coming! F

From what I hear, the HK is almost hysterical when it comes to Vintage Rolex.

Well, th prices are let's say... Nervous, too. Best, Nicolas.

Interesting how the bezel has changed over time....

 
 By: Andy : August 31st, 2011-08:39
here is mine - which I'm wearing as we speak funnily enough. Notice how on your vintage the '18' on the bezel has one digit in each colour but on my more modern version the '8' fron the '18' is partly bisected either side of the red/blue line..... In fact...  

Papsi is the way to go my friend. Great pics. [nt]

Nico, Great to see you back from holiday. Judging by your pictures seems like it was a great time. Congrats on this special GMT, and I will be waiting patiently to learn more about it, and all other GMT's in the post you are preparing, as like you, the GM... 

Muchisimas gracias, Alex. You know how much I love them.

 
 By: amanico : August 31st, 2011-23:04
And the irrational feeling I have for them. Each time I see one, I must refrain my self from buying it. Seriously! Un fuerte abrazo, amigo mio. Nicolas.

vintage GMTs rule...

I always say one day I would like… But the GMT really sings to me VERY loud! Next time we meet you will have to explain to me all the different versions and details to consider before taking the plunge. Thank you for another great set of photos! Best, my ... 

Will be my pleasure.

But once again, you will open another Pandora's box... And believe me, a very addictive one. As I know you, you will soon and fast become mad. But it is really worth it. Best, Nicolas.

He, he…

I can’t become something am already am! Well, with a guide like you I will not go wrong! Deep maybe, but not wrong! Best Blomman
