Concorde, Crown Guards
GMT-Master Concorde 1675/8 — Concorde, Crown Guards
1966–1969
Gold case with shaped crown guards (without the flat faces of the steel guards) and a very thin minute hand, as in the 1968 advertisement — a clue that the hands are original. The 24-hour hand changes from small to large around 1.7M. Also found with Mercedes hands.
