1675 gilt opinions please

Around 1961. Case looks unpolished, dial and hands look original to me but perhaps your expert eyes may have different opinions? Is it a decent one? Thank you

Hands, insert and bracelet is later. Dial has lost its gloss. Pretty average example imho.

It all depends on the price.

Thank you. I didn't realize hands are later.

Honestly I’d wait for a better one unless this one is a steal.
To be clear it’s ok to buy and appreciate an imperfect watch; however, this is best done by this who have collected awhile.

I agree with the comments about average condition and waiting for a better example, depending on your budget.

Hands are later, but if the dial is all original (early SCOC track) - I love it.

Pretty harsh crowd, for an early 60s PCG GMT. Dial looks glossy to me... Some lume deterioration, but not bad, IMO. Case is pretty strong. Nice fade on the insert, even if it is later. Maybe get the hour hand lume repaired by an expert and consider stabilising the others.

I'd buy it if the price is right for you. Watch has character.
