Seller is good - you must decide on price. I already said watch looks fine.

Good guy, watch is nice.

nsumner · 10 December 2014, 04:02 AM

Greekbum is a great guy, no worries. The watch does in fact look good as well.

Im Lauf der Zeit · 10 December 2014, 04:12 AM

Really? Funny question, greekbum has a great reputation here--you should take up your discussion/negotiation with him.

MitchSteel · 10 December 2014, 04:35 AM

Nick is A1

R44 · 10 December 2014, 05:40 AM

Buy it!

well known seller (especially GMT's) so if it's the model of watch you want and you like the condition go for it.

omitohud · 10 December 2014, 05:42 AM

Thanks guys for the nice words. There is a mistake I think as the watch above is $10500 this is the $11500 GMT

A great guy and very easy to work with!

chland7 · 10 December 2014, 01:01 PM

Nick is a good guy. Wouldn't hesitate to do business with him. Watch looks good probably even better in the metal.

soundserious · 10 December 2014, 01:29 PM

Case refinished very well. Nice watch and the seller has a good reputation. Is it worth 11,5? Do your research and decide!

You will have no issues with Nick, as good as they get.

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to call him...

buenosdias · 10 December 2014, 08:58 PM

Never had a deal with greekbum, but I think he has a very high reputation and knows, what he does and says!

Concerning the 1675:
Like already said....case seems to be well refinished and remains thick.

The dial:
IMHO most value and sex-appeal of the gilt '75s is in the dial........and mates.....sorry, for me that's not a sexy one!
Lume plots seem to be partly washed away and have different coulours.
There seems to be some bigger scratches near the middle, probably from removing the hands in the past services. Can't give an exact opinion on the condition of the dial (lacquer layer). Therefore better pics in other angle would be needed.

The bezel and the insert:
IMHO nice and period correct bezel! On the fourth pic it looks like the bezel is out of round or probably only not fitted correct!?
The insert is a later 16750 red back insert with a nice fading.

Think the facts I mentioned aboved are calulated in the price.....A very good example would be about 13.5K up to 15.K nowadays.....so to me the price seems to be fair for this package.

If you like what you see, buy it.
