maxman Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 From my understanding this GMT Root beer....I think It's referred to....Is Clints own personal watch. He purchased It around the time he started making the Dirty Harry films. He has worn It In several of his movies. I'm a huge Clint Eastwood fan and had no idea. I actually don't know much about these GMT's.....or Rolex's In general. Are these rare or hard to find? http://<strong>watch...oot-beer-rolex/ Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

praetor Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 it's not really that hard to find as for the genuine.

praetor Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 personally, i don't like 1675s, something about the depth of the dial. I found a great website with 360 degree views of vintage rolex Here's the 360 for the 6542 http://www.watchguru.com/WatchGuru/Watch-Details/Rolex/GMT-6542/12792 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike They do kinda grow on you I've always loved diver's watches, but GMTs have a nice bit of variety in color, plus the additional function of the extra hand is an added bonus The 6542 really is a thing of beauty I had an idea for a custom GMTII build a few years ago, but never got round to it. What with there being the Coke and Pepsi options, I was thinking about using an aftermarket black and silver insert as a Diet Coke option Hoping to have my custom build done in the near future though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
