Rolex GMT-Master Reference 6542
The World's Most Infamous Watch 1959-1960
My favorite horological historian who I work with regularly is Nick "Eagle Eyes" Gould, and he just published an AMAZING deep dive story on the Rolex GMT-Master, which was published on FratelloWatches.com. The image above appears courtesy of AmsterdamVintageWatches.com, and shows a magnificent lume shot of the GMT-Master 6542 'recall'.
This new article explores the early years of Rolex GMT-Master and offers a great deal of previously undocumented history. The image below the early Rolex GMT-Master Reference 6542 appears courtesy of Christies.
I published a story named "The Complete History of The Rolex GMT-Master", which also offers a great deal of insight on the history of this most iconic Rolex. Be sure to check out Nick Gould's new GMT-Master article on FratelloWatches.com. The ROLEX Magazine article page below was published in Europa Star Asia, Issue #42, in 1957.
