It's a statement issued by Rolex in 1959, through their authorized dealers in the United States, to address fears that resulted from the recall of the original ref. 6542 GMT-Master. In case you don't know, the GMT's Bakelite bezel was radioactive and Rolex recalled the watches, offering to retrofit them with aluminum bezels. This is one reason why original Bakelite GMTs are relatively rare today. #rolexgmt #rolex6542 #radiumgirls #rolexrecall (at McKinney, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLhW4h5Lb05/?igshid=1oc3yg64ti4lx
