WHAT WE LOVE:

The Rolex GMT-Master Ref. 1675 “Pepsi” with Mark 2 dial is a cornerstone in vintage Rolex collecting — and for good reason. 

Few vintage watches strike the balance between historical significance, design evolution, and daily wearability as well as the Ref. 1675. Produced from 1959 to 1980, it’s one of the longest-running references in Rolex’s lineup.

Originally developed for Pan Am pilots navigating across time zones, the watch offered a novel solution: a fourth hand and a rotating 24-hour bezel to simultaneously track two time zones.

This example pairs the dial with a service bezel insert, still in the vibrant red and blue “Pepsi” colourway. While the insert is later, it brings a clean contrast to the dial. To add to this it also comes with its original faded red back bezel. The watch is worn on an 7836 Oyster bracelet, offering a slightly more tool-watch feel compared to the dressier Jubilee — ideal for someone who prefers a sportier, more grounded wrist presence.

Altogether, it’s a beautifully balanced example: vintage where it counts, updated where it’s practical, and endlessly wearable.

WHAT'S INSIDE:

The heart of the watch is the Rolex Caliber 1575, a self-winding GMT movement with date display and independently adjustable 24-hour hand. With a frequency of 19,800 vph and a power reserve of approximately 48 hours, this movement became a benchmark of reliability in the GMT-Master line.
