Icon20 My first Rolex - '67 GMT Master 1675

After looking at a ton of different 1675s, I finally pulled the trigger on a gorgeous specimen from the legendary Autavian. I appreciate all the knowledge I was able to gather by studying posts on this forum! Looking forward to being able to contribute myself in the future.

And now that the sickness has begun, naturally I'll be in the market for a fuschia insert in the near future.

Here's a photo... the glare and dust is in the photo only, the dial is 💯.

Beautiful! Congrats! Very very nice first Rolex! I was looking at the vintage GMT's as my first, but I think I'll save for getting one later down the road. Looking at threads like this, it reminds me why I love the look of this model so much!
