Black Nipple MK3

We have received a Ref. 1675/3 Fuji Tsubo (barnacle) black dial, said to have been manufactured until 1979.

This particular piece was made in 1979, the final year of Fuji Tsubo production.

The dial is an MK3 dial, where the "ROLEX" font is strongly curved and clearly depicted, and the bottom two lines of the "GMT-MASTER" inscription are separated, making it a "center split" specification.

Many people are probably fond of the "center split" alone.

The MK3 black Fuji Tsubo is an extremely rare and uncommon piece.

The four-digit Fuji Tsubo models feature an applied crown mark, making for a very elaborate dial.

Both the dial condition and case proportions are excellent, allowing for comfortable use.

The bracelet is an American-made Jubilee bracelet.
