Rolex introduced the GMT-Master with the reference 6542 as a time zone watch for pilots in 1954. The first models did not have a crown protector and a bezel with bakelite inlay. The plastic was replaced relatively quickly by aluminium number rings, which afforded better durability. The reference 6542 was produced until 1959. The present watch has a supplemented dial of a later date. The hands and bezel have also been replaced.
