Japan seems to have gotten some of the most cool Rolex GMT Master Replica in the world. Consider the 2003 reference PIC3570.31 Mitsukoshi Limited Edition, and then in 2004, the reference 3570.40 Japan Racing Dial.Rolex GMT Master Replica Both references are in high demand and their price is on an upward trajectory.
Today, we will focus on the 3570.40 Japan Racing Dial. First, let's take a look back in time and learn about the unusual origin of this dial.
According to the story in Moonwatch Only by Anthony Marquie and Gregoire Rossier, the racing dial was first seen on a small batch Rolex GMT Master Replica manufactured between 1967-1968. The watches were 145.012-67s with twisted lugs in steel cases, and they had caliber 321 as well as DON bezels.
The dials were black with white minute markers and red and white hour indicators. All of the chronograph hands were white while the minute and hour hands were red.Franck Muller Replica Six documented examples of this watch are known to exist. It had a Pre Professional dial with an applied metal logo, and the words “Omega Speedmaster” in the style CK2915s.
Four documented examples of the Professional dial variant of the watch are known. These include the familiar printed logo and a modernized version of OMEGA. In a third row, the PROFESSIONAL is printed. Moonwatch Only also points out that they had smaller counters. Strangely, one of these four is actually a ST 105.012 and not a ST 145.012. It's funny.
