Anything stand out to you 1675 GMT fans?

Post by binbin »

This is for sale local to me. Very local. Within a few blocks.

The GMT 1675 is one of my all time favorites. Says it was purchased in 1982. I thought the last production year was 1980. Maybe new old stock?

Going price on something like this?

I'll leave the answer to the seasoned Rolex guys, I am not by far into Rolex.

I can only confirm that this particular reference was made and sold between 1959 and 1980.

I am sure that purchased in 1982 should not raise a red flag, Rolex had a hard time selling watches at that time.

The watch looks good to me. I sent him a message. Waiting for a reply.

I know if there is any thing that is off the guys here can find it. :)

I think the box should have had a tan fabric type insert. It looks like the watch is on a green display piece. I think some of the older boxes had a green insert with a green display piece the watch was on.

That is a great link. Thankyou.

Sad to say, I was too slow. It was gone in very short order. :(

... 1982 is the year I bought a Seiko diver ... sorry, the 1675. The pepsi insert looks nice, but it looks like the red-backed version which is not correct for this period. The all black insert is a service version to me.

"gmtmaster1675" is what the local vintage dealers refer in my town.

Good catch on the reflection in the tin. I missed that.

I'm confused, you purchased a 1675 in 1982?

Sorry, 1982 is the year I purchased my first watch which was a Seiko diver. But, yes I got a 1675 (not from 1982 though) with the type C dial.
