ROLEX GMT MASTER REF 1675
Here is how it looks when I got it.
So I have to get some fresh parts.
The classic Pepsi insert.
A bright white dial.
With Super Luminova.
It says 1675 inside the backcase.
Some case views.
There have been some marks and dings over the years.
So lets get to work.
Not so sharp relume.
So I start with some fine sandpaper.
And after that I use a polishing machine.
So we have to pull off the rotor.
Now it looks like a manual winding movement.
So the dial have to leave the movement.
Notice at the date wheel all 6´s ans 9´s except the 26 are open.
Streange, no. It´s just so confusing Rolex works.
I´m just curious.
First hand in place.
And next.
All 4 hands in place.
It looks like he have place them correct.
So how will the final work looks?
I hope you enjoy the journey.

Sad that I am back to reality . The close 6 in 26 must be a cryptic message, a secret message from Rolex to the world ...
