The Watch

Here we have a 2022 Steinhart Vintage GMT 39 Olko Edition “McQueen” sold exclusively through the Olko Watch Boutique in small batches, Olko is an official partner of Steinhart, based in Germany and owned by Olga Koch. This design is clearly inspired by the Rolex Explorer II ref: 1655 affectionately known as the “McQueen" after he was seen wearing one in a 1970s advert. The 39mm polished and brushed stainless steel case curves over your wrist with tapered flat-ended lugs, and a lug-to-lug length of 47mm and a case thickness of 12mm give the watch an impressive wrist presence. On the right side is a screw-down signed crown protected by crown guards and deep knurling for grip. A polished and brushed fixed stainless steel bezel has a deeply engraved 24-hour scale painted in black holding a flat sapphire crystal AR coated on the inside above a matte black dial. An outer minute track has square and baton indexes marking the hours, at 12 o’clock an inverted triangle, a cyclops magnified date window sits at 3 o’clock, large hands coated in Super-LumiNova BGW9 are complemented by an orange GMT hand and a lollipop weighted sweeping second hand. At 12 o’clock we have the applied Steinhart motif “Ocean GMT” and “1000ft/300m” “Automatic” printed at 6 o’clock completing this special edition. On the reverse, a screw-down case back with a deep engraving of Poseidon on his seahorse, inside an automatic Sellita SW330, 25 jewels, 28,800 beats per hour, this movement comes with hacking, hand winding and quick-set date for your convenience. The watch comes paired with its 22mm stainless steel Oyster style bracelet with a signed folding safety deployment clasp, and this watch is sold with its original Steinhart box, swing tag and paperwork.


Personal Note

If, like me, you love the Rolex 1655 but don't have that kind of money sitting around to purchase one, then this Steinhart Vintage GMT 39 Olko Edition is one well worth considering at a fraction of the price and offers a ton of value for your money. Homage watches often get a bad rep in the collecting community, as always, if you like it, then go for it, if you don't, then move on to something else, it is that simple...
