Rolex Concorde GMT-Master 1675 in 18k Yellow Gold
The Rolex GMT-Master was originally designed for Pan Am pilots in the 1950s and continues to be a flagship model for Rolex to this day. The present watch is an awesome example of a GMT-Master in 18k gold with an extremely rare straight hour and minute hands nicknamed the "Concorde" due to its appearance in a Rolex advertisement about Concorde pilots from the late 1960s. The watch dates to circa 1967. with a 1.74M serial The case has been polished, but an attractive example. The GMT hand is a later replaced example. It was likely an aesthetic choice of the original owner to remove it. I have seen this in the past.
