Since its introduction in the 1950s, the Rolex Oyster Perpetual GMT Master has taken centre stage in many watch collections and discussions. The reason being is, it’s a timeless watch. It has loosely defined the tool and sport watch categories. Rolex have been known for taking baby steps in the evolution of a model, the first being the reference 6542. The GMT Master has taken on a multitude of dial variations and references. This piece was produced at the start of the new millennium in 2001.

The gloss black dial has clean lume plot hour markers and is marked ‘SWISS MADE’ below the 6 o’clock hour marker and is in immaculate condition along with the hands. The ‘pepsi’ bezel insert sits on the 40mm stainless steel case which is in fantastic condition. The case is showing signs of a light polish. Housed behind the screw down case back, is the coveted automatic Rolex cal. 3186 movement which is clean, running well and keeping time. This piece would have originally had a cal. 3185 but was changed during a service at Rolex. The watch has a Rolex oyster 78360 bracelet with 501B end links. The bracelet is in great structural condition with light hairline scratches.
