Looks fairly decent. 1970 model of 1675. I am assuming the dial and hands are service units since they match so well. Other major components supposed to be original.
    Appears that not a lot of the GMT Masters of this era had the black nipple dials. Not a good or bad thing as far as I can tell. More of a preference. Correct serial for ‘70. Has the longer bigger GMT hand of the era also. Bracelet repair $3-400 if you can track down somebody to do it.

    Sorry to be of no help whatsoever (well, I bumped the thread I guess), but let me just say that that's some truly magnificent stretch on that bracelet! :cool:

    Looks good and all-original at first glance. As noted, the bracelet is in rough shape. Regarding price, the two-tone nipple-dial 1675 pieces are quite a bit less valuable than the SS w/ pepsi bezel.

    Bracelet repair Stainless Steel is affordable. Twotone medium to expensive and all gold is expensive
    People who can do it are
    Michael young from Hong Kong

    Good luck
