Rolex Vintage GMT-Master “Pepsi” – Long E – Reference 1675 – Stainless Steel – Chocolate Brown Tritium Dial – 1969

We are pleased to offer this exceptional vintage Rolex GMT-Master Reference 1675, distinguished by its rare “Long E” dial configuration and beautifully aged chocolate-brown tritium surfaces. Dating to 1969, this example embodies everything collectors seek in a period-correct vintage GMT: original character, honest patina, and the unmistakable charm of one of Rolex’s most iconic tool watches.

First introduced in the late 1950s for Pan Am pilots, the GMT-Master became the definitive travel companion for the jet age. By 1969, the 1675 had evolved into one of the most recognizable and collectible Rolex references, appreciated today for its slim profile, classic proportions, and the warmth that only decades of natural aging can produce.

This watch features a stunning chocolate-brown matte dial, the result of natural tropicalization over more than five decades. The tritium hour markers have aged to a warm creamy tone, perfectly matched by the original tritium handset. The “Long E” in “ROLEX”—a hallmark of specific Mk I-era dials—is present and correct, confirming the dial’s authenticity and placing it firmly within one of the most desirable production periods.

The iconic red-and-blue “Pepsi” bezel insert shows attractive fading consistent with age, transitioning to soft, muted tones that give the watch tremendous vintage presence. The stainless-steel case retains pleasing proportions with well-preserved lugs.

Powered by the Rolex automatic Caliber 1570, the movement is known for its reliability and classic engineering. As with all vintage Rolex calibers of this era, the 1570 offers smooth, dependable performance and exemplifies the robust construction of the brand’s golden-age tool watches.

This gorgeous vintage GMT:

- Original and quite perfect chocolate brown Tritium LONG E dial

- Original blue/red and faded bezel inlay

- Original Tritium hands

- Original Rivet steel Oyster bracelet - (4/68)

“This Rolex GMT-Master 1675 ‘Long E’ with tropical chocolate dial represents a pinnacle of vintage Rolex collecting — combining period-correct details, rare natural aging, and the unmistakable charm of one of the brand’s most celebrated references.”
