Buddy Tomvox1.If permitted.Here are 1675 GMT Master Matte Dial Variants.Once again+scans

Err...here is what Orchi believes to be the 1st Generation of
1675 GMT Master Matte Dial...
Please let Orchi calls it as MK.1 Matte Dial...for now.

Case series from around 1.6 mil until about Mid 2 mil or so...
Possibly...the Earliest Series could take the FAMED Mini Small Arrow
24hour GMT Hand

Perfect Example of MK.1 Matte Dial:

With Case Ref# 2,011,xxx ...Non-Hacking Cal.1575 movement.
A.k.a "Bart Simpson" Coronet, Flatter Top, Longer & Slim 5 Arches,
n Prominent "o" Coronet Base.
(Latest Purchase from WBAW? LA + Original Cert)











Perfect Example of MK.2 Matte Dial:

Case series from around Mid 2.5 mil to Early or Mid 3.0 mil
Possibly...this would take the illusive & RARE 24hour All RED GMT Hand.

With Case Ref# 2,999,xxx ...Hacking Cal.1575 movement.
A.k.a Odd version with "Bleeding" Flat Base Coronet,
"Bleeding" plots of "ROLEX"...believed to be a painting flaw.
(Latest Purchase from NBTimes of Hong Kong)

Perfect Example of Another MK.2 Matte Dial:

With Case Ref# 2,7xx,xxx ...Hacking Cal.1575 movement
Possible with All Black Bezel Insert
Possible...with the illusive 24hour All RED GMT Hand.





RAREST Example of MK.3 Matte Dial:

Case series from around Mid 3.5 mil to about 4.0 mil
A.k.a "RADIAL" or "MINI" Dial.
(Orchi is short of this Matte Dial version...thought to be Very RARE)

Perfect Example of MK.4 Matte Dial:

Case series from around Early 5.0 mil to about Early or Mid 6.0 mil
Possibly...this would take the illusive & RARE 24hour All RED GMT Hand also.

With Case Series 5,2xx,xxx...Hacking Cal.1575 movement.









Example of MK.5 Dial(?):

(?Case series from around Mid 6.0 mil to the End of Matte Dial Production by Rolex for 1675 GMT Master by around 1980..?)

ALL of the above Matte Dials of 1675 GMT Master...
have been discontinued by Rolex...with the SOLE exception
of the following...perhaps.

The above list of 5 main Matte Dial Variants from namely MK.1 to MK.5...
(as per Orchi's humble suggestion)...
ALL of which has OBVIOUS differences by comparisons between these 5 variants...

1. They each have the OBVIOUS yet distinctive individual Coronet style plots...
2. They each have the OBVIOUS yet distinctive individual OP/SCOC plots alignment...
n to a certain degree...the thickness of fonts..n body of paint prints...are more or less different.

NO 2 Variants from MK.1 to MK.5 main Matte Dial Variants could be seen as having close resemblances...


Here is one example of 1675 GMT Matte Dial...which Orchi assumes to
be an Early Rolex Service Replacement Tritium Dial...which is NOT
commonly seen...in Orchi's own novice opinion.

Perhaps other VRF GMT buddies may be able to shed some light onto this
unfamiliar Matte Dial variant...(lets call it Mk.X for the time being)

Here is the common Example of Rolex Service Replacement LUMINOVA Dial:

Rolex Service Replacement Luminova Matte Dial marked with "SWISS" at 6 o'clock.
With Case Series 4,46x,xxx ...Rolex Service Replacement.

Further study n findings by Novice Orchi...would be posted in
a later stage...or as soon as possible.

Thanks very much for watching...

Best regards
Orchi.
