Sharing a couple of my vintage pieces. :)
Hi guys! I am Ruel from the Philippines and the vintage bug has hit me hard! I sold almost all of my modern pieces to fund for 2 of my grail watches, a 1680 red submariner and a 1675 GMT radial dial.

I hope to learn a lot from you guys in this forum! Best regards!

Nice watches Pare. The Red Sub has a Mark 5 dial? It looks hardly used. The GMT is also great but I think it has service hands already.

It is a Mark IV dial sir Erpin. Yes, the GMT was serviced sometime in the mid-80s by RSC Manila and has a replacement case. But it is all good and had one that is complete with everything that came with it since 1977.

Thanks for the welcome guys! A lot of my friends from back home have told me to join this forum and quit being just a lurker. Hoping to learn from the experts here.

Hey doc! I think I will have to take a break from buying this year. But since you asked, I am probably going to hunt for a 1980s white buckley dialled datejust.
