Description: Great 1675 GMT-Master with MK1 longE dial and cool faded redback inlay
The case is in very good condition. Probably polished once in the past, it shows full lugs, a good edge grinding and a clean matt finish on the top of the case. There are minor signs of wear, but no deep scratches, dents or anything like that
The MK1 longE GMT-Master dial is in great condition. The print is clear and the lume material shows the typical waffle print pattern of the longE dials. In addition, the lume material has aged into a beautiful and strong yellow tone, which gives the watch a great vintage charm.
The tritium hands are in very good condition. They are a little bit lighter than the dial, but that is only insignificant in nature.
The bezel is wonderfully sharp, shows only minor signs of wear and the original Pepsi bezel insert (with red back) is wonderfully aged.
The 7835 Oyster folding bracelet is in very good condition. It shows slight stretch due to its age and slight signs of wear. It wears perfectly and comes without a clasp code, which means that it was probably exchanged once between 1973 and 1976, because folding straps without a clasp code were used here.
Conclusion: Great MK1 longE 1675 with a lot of vintage charm
