WHY THIS WATCH
Introduced in 1959, the Rolex 1675 is the second generation of the Rolex GMT-Master, replacing the first model, the Rolex ref 6542. Among the changes made to the 1675 was the introduction of crown guards and the replacement of the fragile radium Bakelite bezel with an aluminum insert. The changes made this watch, for the first time, robust enough for daily wear.
