Did any of the yr. 1969 GMT 1675's come with a 1560 movement?

Rolex switched to the 1575 in 1965 so it's very very unlikely.

'1570' (1575 is with the date function, but they all just say 1570, as with the 1680 subs and 1665 SDs)

1969: 1570 non hacking movement for sure.

yes, 1575 was a date model of 1570, ... but GMTs had 1575 marked bridge - and it's hard to find....

I'd like to see that - got any photos? What do you mean by the above statement - that ALL GMTs had 1575 on the bridge, or just 'some' ? If they are marked 1575 on the bridge, why is it hard to find?

I have not seen the movement of my 1966 1675 GMT, which was fully overhauled by RSC UK in 2011. I just assumed it was likely marked 1570, as per my 1970 1680 RED SUB, which I have seen inside (photo attached, by Eric Ku).

You're right. For some reason, I thought 1575gmt was marked differently, but it looks like they use the same 8109 bridge as cal 1570.
