1968 Rolex Magazine Ad Black Bezel Japanese GMT-MASTER

1968 Rolex Magazine Ad

Black Bezel Japanese GMT-MASTER 

Nick Gould recently discovered this super cool Japanese Rolex Magazine ad for the GMT-Master, and beside looking really great, it seem to be one of the first ads fro the all black bezel GMT-Master which I believe Rolex first introduced in 1967-1968. 


The earliest know photo I am aware of somebody rocking the all black bezel GMT-Master was Gunter Sachs who is pictured above and below rocking his all black bezel GMT-Master. Gunter was a German photographer, film director, mathematician, author and ultra successful industrialist. He was also married to the stunning Bridget Bardot.
