The [[Reference:1675|1675]] is the main vintage GMT-Master. It takes the fragile, early [[Reference:6542|6542]] idea and turns it into the watch most people picture when they say vintage GMT: crown guards, acrylic crystal, an aluminum 24-hour insert, and a production run long enough to hold several different watches under a single reference number. Early gilt PCG (pointed crown guard) examples, later glossy gilt watches, matte-dial steel watches, black- or brown-dial gold watches, and the two-tone Root Beer branch all live here. | The [[Reference:1675|1675]] is the main vintage GMT-Master.

The case is nominally 40mm and uses a Twinlock crown with a 5.3mm diameter. Wind gives 50m water resistance, and measured dimensions run closer to 39mm by 47.5mm lug-to-lug. Those are not contradictory in practice. One is catalog-style sizing; the other is a measured case note. | The case is nominally 40mm and uses a Twinlock crown with a 5.3mm diameter.
