This Rolex watch is in great, honest vintage condition. The case is in good condition with normal signs of wear. Between the lugs show signs of wear/ corrosion. The serial numbers are clearly visible and the reference is not anymore. The bezel insert is a later service replacement in great condition with light wear. The colors have remained vibrant. The dial is in great condition with some patina and a slight hand drag near six o'clock. The lume plots on the dial have aged to an attractive creamy pale yellow color. The hands have developed patina and the lume in the hands matches the lume on the dial nicely. The Oyster bracelet is in great condition overall with normal wear and light stretch between the links.
The Rolex 1675 enjoyed a long production run, spanning from the late 1950s until the 1980s. Its massive success also lead to numerous variations, including either a glossy or matte dial, a two-tone or all-black bezel, and either a Jubilee or Oyster bracelet. The GMT Master 1675 for sale here is a coveted Pepsi bezel edition of the famed pilot's watch featuring a red and blue aluminum bezel, a matte black dial, and Oyster bracelet.
This circa 1969 example is in overall beautiful and honest condition. This watch has a classic "Pepsi" GMT vibe with its vibrant "Pepsi" bezel and nicely aged lume. Collectors refer to this dial variation as a Mark I "Long E." When looking at the "Rolex" text on the dial the "E" has a longer central bar (same length as the top and bottom ones) and that is where the nickname comes from. This Rolex is a favorite among collectors in the know. It's guaranteed to make a statement and will quickly become the envy of your circle of friends.

Well represented watch in excellent condition. Super fast shipping. My second purchase from Bobs but not my last. Their watches seem to be in better condition than many of the others I’ve seen online.
The whole transaction process with Bob's is always top notch. The vintage watch was functioning as expected, the case is relatively strong with minimal polishing, and the dial is a beautiful service dial as expected.
I really like this beautiful 1675 with fuchsia bezel.
Quick e-mail responses, systematic
I have worn this watch everyday for 47 years, had it cleaned every 8 or so years, had the bezel replaced with the new one back in the 80s. Paid $400 in Switzerland in 1970. This is the greatest lifetime deal ever!!
