The coffee-table book *Rolex GMT-Master 1675: The Gilt Era* chronicles the fascinating evolution of the popular Rolex GMT-Master. The book combines historical research with technical analysis. It is by no means a definitive guide, but rather a starting point for discussion, an invitation to look beyond the surface. It is a tribute to a passion fueled by the sharing of knowledge and continuous discovery—just like the pleasure of wearing a GMT on your wrist.
This book was born out of a passion for one of the most iconic timepieces ever made: the Rolex GMT-Master Ref. 1675, during its fascinating early production phase featuring ‘Gilt’ dials. It is not merely a technical manual or a list of details, but a journey in which history, research, and direct observation come together. Each component—dial, case, bezel, crown—is presented as part of a larger whole, closely intertwined with the historical context in which the watch was created and evolved.
The purpose of this work is to provide clarity and structure by comparing examples and documents, thereby offering insights to both seasoned collectors and those new to this field. This book, the result of the shared knowledge and passion of three authors—Fabrizio Artioli, Marco Di Falco, and Andrea Piccinini—is intended as a resource for study, reflection, and dialogue about a model that has left an indelible mark on the history of watchmaking.
