rolex replica watches's press launch was very closely related to the Rolex GMT-Master launch in 1954. There was also a strong focus on the fact that both brands were celebrating 64 years of their respective watches by launching GMT watches with complementary aesthetics.

As I have mentioned, the story of GMT-Master began in 1954, when Rolex introduced the ref. 6542. The classic Oyster case was 38mm in diameter with a 6mm screw-down crown. It was the first Rolex sports watch and set the standard in terms of construction.
The 6542 case, like the modern watches, was basically a three-piece design. The movement and dial were held in the mid case. A bezel ring was then pressed onto the acrylic crystal to hold it in place. The screw-on back was the third part of the case. The Oyster case was waterproof due to this system and the screw-down winding crown. It can withstand more than just a little splash.

Two innovations were made to the watch that were revolutionary at the time but which are now part of our everyday lives. The second, and perhaps less noticeable, was the date magnifying balloon, or,Rolex Submariner Replica to use Rolex terminology the "cyclops". This new feature was introduced in 1953 on the Datejust line. The second was the dual-timezone complication.
Take to the Skies
Dual-timezone was an invaluable tool for both pilots and travellers, who often had to use it across continents. Commercial pilots found the ability to track their local and home times extremely useful. Pan American Airlines, an American airline company (or Pan Am), approached Rolex to design a watch for its pilots. The partnership resulted in the creation of the GMT-Master, and the first ref. 6542.
Commercially available watches had a base Calibre 1030,rolex replica watches which was modified to include the 24-hour hands and was given the calibre number 1165. The chronometer-rated movement featured a four-hand engine and date function. The 24-hour watch's hand rotated one time per 24 hours. Additionally, the bi-directional bezel could rotate to allow wearers to check their home time after they have adjusted their watch to local or vice versa.
