Rolex Fuchsia GMT-Master Ref 1675 Unpolished Box, Receipt, Customs Paper & Letter of Provenance

The Rolex GMT-Master was originally designed for Pan Am pilots in the 1950s and continues to be a flagship model for Rolex to this day. The reference 1675 was introduced in 1959 and remained in production until 1980.

This is a superb Fuchsia 1675 featuring a 1.82M serial number, dating to circa 1968. These bezels were born on watches featuring 1.8M and 1.9M serial range from circa 1968-1969. The case appears unpolished. The aluminum bezel insert is very attractive. It is paired on aI Rolex folded link bracelet dating to 1970 which is slightly later.

We do not know the service history, but it is running well. It recently passed a 5 bar water resistance test.

It comes from a collector who purchased it from the original owner. The watch comes with box, receipt customs papers, and a letter of provenance from the original owner.
