The GMT ref. 1675 is not a rare watch by any stretch of the imagination, however this is not an ordinary early 70s 1675 - the Lemrich dial Mk 2.5 was made in extremely low numbers in comparison to the "standard" Mk 2 counterpart - original examples of the Lemrich 2.5 are rare birds and exceedingly hard to come by
With an almost certainly unpolished case, thick lugs and clearly visible chamfers, the proportions of this watch are exemplary - the watch has undoubtedly been worn with the utmost care during the previous tenure
The original pepsi bezel insert which has aged to a perfect copper and rich petrol blue, with just a couple of small dings around 11 and 1 to remark of
All the hash marks are intact, with the creamy tritium lume complementing the aforementioned insert perfectly - the hands match and fall off instantly when exposed to UV as they should
The watch has undergone a full service by my trusted watchmaker and is mechanically guaranteed for one year (January 2024) - currently running with an amplitude of 290 at 3 s/d
