Icon14 Wiggle Test? Check!

I sold my Sub and ExplorerII recently and was actively looking for a vintage DD, but something about the GMT drew me in. I'm not a huge fan of the blue/red, so I figure this is a lot quicker than switching the inserts out. It came in the larger TT or all-gold box (don't have anything to compare to), weird quirk, but the winder is a nice touch.






I just realized that I'm back to exactly where I was before, but instead of two 3185 GMTs, it's two 3186s. Throwback pic:

Things go better with Coke, looks good

The 3186 is technically the latest and greatest so you can't go wrong.
