I prefer my 1500 to my 1675!
I'm fortunate to own my fathers 1675 GMT-Master from 68 I think. It has a nice mk I dial. I inherited it back in 2004 and it has great sentimental value of course.
I also own a black dial 1500 with gold hands and gold indices. My dad bought me this on my 16th birthday back in 1980. I have all the paperwork. I've worn the GMT everyday now since 2004 and its great. However I still love the simple classic understated 1500 date on the oyster bracelet. It's hard to wear 2 watches, so recently I've taken to swapping them around on a weekly basis. Watches should be worn IMO. |

I'd love too. I'll work on it.
I doubt I can match the superb quality and flare some on here have. |
