Just an excuse to show some new pics (taken on Chicago's lakefront)...This is a 1.4 mil (II 66) which I bought from Eric Ku not long ago.

HL65 · 2 July 2013, 09:28 AM

Very nice Adam! Cheers,

pdoukas · 2 July 2013, 12:46 PM

Very nice Adam! I'll be in Chicago at the end of the month visiting relatives, and then again in November for RSNA. I love Chicago!

nsumner · 2 July 2013, 01:02 PM

Nice job!!! Love the T38

adam78 · 2 July 2013, 01:14 PM

Yeah, the cyclops doesn't really bother me for Subs and Datejusts and the like, but with the GMTs, it can get very cumbersome visually at 3:00 when the 24 hour hand gets in the way! I much prefer this cleaner look.

Beaumont Miller II · 2 July 2013, 01:20 PM

Beautiful watch and great pics. I've taken some shots of some of my watches on Lake Michigan as well.

Robi74 · 2 July 2013, 01:23 PM

Im also thinking of a t38! The watch looks way better if you ask me with the t38!

Congrates Adam she is a nice pearl!

I don't often download pics from the forum but had to take these.. wow what a gorgeous example! Wonderful dial, hands, case, bezel... bracelet... everything!

skprd13 · 2 July 2013, 03:18 PM

Lucky man! Awesome watch! Congrats!

glocati · 2 July 2013, 03:22 PM

What an awesome dial and small 4th hand ! congrats !

Vincent65 · 2 July 2013, 05:18 PM

Beauty, but I prefer the correct crystal - you have quite a space between that one and the bezel insert, which looks a bit off to me. Lovely watch though - same year as mine!

+1, i never thought about that! Now that you mention it, yes it looks off! But i like the clean look! Will have to thing about the plexi swap a little more i think!

I think the photos exaggerates whatever space there is. Certainly none that I can put a fingernail through. It's really more like a bevel, given the curve of the early insert. And the crystal and insert are level. Must be an artifact of the wide angle lens of my camera to make it look otherwise...AFAIK the T38 was also correct for the 1675, as an alternative, according to parts catalogs. They are getting scarce, though.

cop414 · 2 July 2013, 08:55 PM

Wow, very, very nice!

cruvon · 2 July 2013, 09:17 PM

That's stunning Adam, very tasteful!

Drool worthy.. That is stunning. Love the T38 too. I have to agree, very clean.

Michael M. · 3 July 2013, 06:10 AM

Beautiful shot, and lovely 1675 Gilt!

Sparkie · 12 July 2013, 04:57 PM

WOW, beautiful watch! I am also looking at a 1.4m 1966 GMT gilt with small triangle 24hour hand. Your dial and hands are in incredible condition, have the hands been changed?

Bdevenney · 13 July 2013, 12:07 PM

Stunning dial! Big congrats.

joe100 · 13 July 2013, 12:37 PM

That bezel insert is sublime

Kingair · 13 July 2013, 06:00 PM
