Lot Essay

Introduced in 1954 as the references 6542, the GMT-Master was produced to aid pilots and travelers as they entered the age of jet powered international travel. The first generation was superseded by the reference 1675 in 1959, replacing the fragile Bakelite bezel with one of metal and adding a crown guard to the case. The example offered here features the gloss black dial with gilt printing, which has acquired a crazed pattern to the surface over the years.
