Condition Analysis
This GMT is gorgeous with an original spider dial, one of the cleanest we've seen. The tritium on the hour markers has burnt off way more than the original tritium hands. The bezel and insert look good, with no dents or gashes. The case itself is unpolished and the lugs are nice and thick with nice and prominent chamfers.

Curator Thoughts
The 5-digit Rolex GMTs pack serious value in the market. For not much more than a simple submariner, you can get a GMT Master with its bi-directional 24-hour bezel and GMT hand. WIth its PANAM and aviation history, the Rolex GMT is one of the coolest models in Rolex's lineup.
