Doesnt a watch look so much better when you
get the correct bracelet and end links!...
 Managed to find a 66 7206 Rivet for my 65 GMT 1675 ( at a reasonable price) here are some very quick snaps, sorry for the quality

i have seen some going for up to $1500, just ridiculous. its is still nice and thick and quite solid, must have been 'polished' or whatever the term for the matt refinishing is as very fewscratches and a really even finish, but looks and feels good

Looks good on it
I personally think the 6636 expandable or the 7206 is the best way to go on the early thin case GMT's.The look and feel is perfect if the band is in good shape.

Like the perfect tie to compliment a suite. It's all about the details. Well done, Chris!

You made the right choice IMHO. The 7206 over the 78360 as on this 1675 the 78360 looks to thick for the case when viewed sideways. How do you like the feel compared to what was on it before?

Very cool! The end links look tight and not collapsed, which is very important as it can scratch the serials and ref numbers if it is not tight.

When I was learning to fly, I never took off my GMT Master. Yours is a great example. Love it!
