The difference between what would be the first Rolex GMT-Master reference 6542 and the Turn-O-Graph reference 6202 was the modified movement and the bezel. The new modified movement was called 1036 and had an extra hand, that we know as the GMT-hand.
Rolex gmt master reference 6542
The very first known photo of a celebrity wearing a Rolex GMT-Master belongs to none other than the Jazz Legendary Trumpeter, Dizzy Gillespie. Dizzy Gillespie is pictured below at the 1958 Monterey Jazz Festival wearing his then Avant-Garde Rolex GMT-Master. The GMT-Master quickly gained popularity and was adopted by many of the world’s leading airlines. By 1960, a Rolex catalog boasted that twenty out of twenty-one aircraft navigators considered the GMT-Master an essential professional tool.
Truly, the history of the Rolex GMT Master begins before its debut, on July 15, 1954. This was the day that a Boeing 707 prototype took off for the first time. Soon after its maiden voyage, Pan American Airways made two important requests: From Boeing, 20 jetliners for Transatlantic use.The earliest ref. 1675 GMT-Masters possessed a larger 40mm case, matte dials with gilt (gold) elements, tritium (not radium) hour indices and hands, pointed crown guards, Oyster or Jubilee bracelet, and a new Rolex Calibre 1565 movement. First, there was the cal. 1036, then the 1065, and finally the 1066. The very earliest examples of the ref. 6542 feature the words "GMT-Master" written in pink and are rare, with at least one example known to feature the depth rating of "50m = 165ft" on the dial in red above the pink GMT-Master text.
Around 1945, Rolex introduced its first waterproof Oyster chronograph, reference 4500. This 36mm anti-magnetic watch featured a very similar case to the Datejust, but without a fluted bezel. Instead, the smooth bezel appeared one with the case itself. With its “monoblock” appearance, modern-day enthusiasts nicknamed this model the “Monoblocco.” Exploring the Rolex GMT history, we trace the roots of the first Rolex GMT Masters and witness how Rolex’s innovative GMT-Master lineup has evolved, standing as an enduring symbol of precision and luxury.Originally designed for Pan American pilots in 1954, the GMT-Master is a true tool watch with a storied history. The launch of the GMT-Master heralded two novel features in Rolex’s sports watches, that though they may seem commonplace now, were big news at the time.
