Rolex GMT 1675 with Red 24 hand

Root beer with red hand?

A little help on a GMT 1675 (possibly).

Came across this Rolex today, the only thing that calls my attention is the red 24 hand, has anyone seem it? Circa 1980. Any additional info? All others I saw had golden handle on 24/GMT.

Cheers

All the Hands have been replaced.There is still value to it for sure,Just minus the cost of a new Hand set and labor to change them.

Thanks for the leads.
Any good way to identify if these replaced hands are original or knock offs. Would you change all hands or the red one only.
Any ball park estimate on value
Cheers

I would change all the Hands to better match the Dial.I would say the value is around $4,500 or so if the mechanics are OK.
