FS: 1970 GMT, nice yellow patina, faded red-back insert

[springer]

FOR SALE:

1970 Rolex GMT 1675 with Mark I dial and tritium hands that has a very pleasing yellow patina. Comes on an original and correct USA oval-link Jubilee bracelet with all 22 links with a minimal amount of stretch. Original red-back "Pepsi" bezel insert which is in perfect condition free of the typical scratches found on vintage inserts with a gorgeous color and fade. The watch also has the original "hooked 7" date wheel !!!

The lugs are very "fat" and the case and case back are in excellent condition and free corrosion or any significant dings or scratches with minimal polishing in the past. The serial number and model number are clearly visible between the lugs. (There is not STAINLESS STEEL stamping between the lugs which was not uncommon to Rolex watches produced during the later 1960s to 1970.)

The watch has a few service markings inside the case back - the last being three years ago. I have had the watch completely examined by
my watchmaker, where it was timed and pressure tested. It is currently running at +3 seconds. The watch was not in need of a service at the time of the inspection and is being sold with no service warranty.

Please feel free to ask any questions.
