What is Gilt writing on a GMT Master 1675?

Hello Friends,

I've checked on some previous threads about Gilt and could'nt quite find the answer I'm looking for. I'm looking at a GMT Master 1675 which I'm not sure has Gilt writing or not. Could someone explain what Gilt writing is? How do I detect it on a 1675? Does the dial have to be glossy or can it be a matte dial to have the Gilt? Thank you everyone!

Greg

Gilt should mean gold text and the dial should also be glossy instead of matte.
