Date Change on GMT 1675

How do you change the date on a Rolex GMT 1675? Is there a way to just move the hour hand around like a GMTII ,or do you have to keep turning both hands until the date changes to the desired date?

Yes you do. The 1675 is not quick-set or Jump-hour.

Those came out with the 16750 and 16760 respectfully.

Mike summed it up, but I wanted to add that if you have more than one watch, I think having a winder for a non-quick set date watch, like the 1675 is perfect. If you put your GMT down and it stops on the 22nd, and then put it back on and you need to change to date to, let's say, the 18th, it takes forever to change the date. Just wanted to add my

Now, how about a picture of that 1675?

Only other option if it's not worn on a day to day basis, and you don't have a watch winder, is to simply wear it with the date not set correctly.... I know i know how could you do it
