#SOLD 1967 Rolex GMT 1675 Mark I Long E Dial
#SOLD 1967 Rolex GMT 1675 Mark I Long E Dial
For sale is the first iteration of the matte dial rolex GMT. The watch dates to 1967 and features the first run of the Long E Mark I dial. These first batch long E dials (1.6-1.8 Mil cases) featured a tritium zinc sulfate mixture for lume which still glows briefly when charged with UV light. All the lume plots are in tact and match the hands nicely.
The case is in excellent condition showing little to no polishing. The serial number is 1.8XX,XXX . The Swiss made jubilee is stamped “II 67” and has 55 end links. It’s in 90% or better condition with no stretch.
The insert is a black fat font that was replaced at service at some point in its life. The date wheel is the original sliver back ground.
I’m not aware of any service history. The was runs well and keeps time but may require service in the future.
