Thanks Steve--thanks Chris!!

capote · 14 July 2011, 09:02 PM

Wow! Vintage gold is really cool, congrats

Does gold get any sort of patina when it is aging or does it remain the same color?

truetime · 14 July 2011, 09:08 PM

What a BEAUTY... HUGE CONGRATS!!!!! :)

Bests,

RLX-lvr · 14 July 2011, 09:44 PM

Wow Ken, 1680/8 MF is the king!
Your example is stunning, especially with original bracelet.

I have been lucky to have seen these, as my watch friend here has owned two of these rare birds.

Yours is stunning, congrats.

HL65 · 14 July 2011, 09:51 PM

Thanks Jeff! I only know of one person that has owned two of these- Dick the 1680/8 King!! Have a great day!!

Johny · 14 July 2011, 10:03 PM

congratulations ken. a stunning watch in stunning condition.

DiamondJack · 14 July 2011, 10:03 PM

Hey Ken

She looks absolutely fantastic

. And will be unbelievably stunning on the black leather bund. As you know, I'm obviously partial to a bit of leather but the gold and black with black leather really show off the asthetics to the best. A real class act

........ but there again, Ken, I'd expect nothing less from you having seen all your other masterpieces. Simply sublime and not having been a fan of 18k before, which can look a bit ostentatious, this has really opened my eyes up to the possibilities. Wonderful.... Enjoy

HL65 · 14 July 2011, 10:11 PM

Thanks again all! Thanks Steve!!

Jagatai · 14 July 2011, 10:45 PM

Beautiful stunner!!

adt · 15 July 2011, 12:40 AM

Very very nice Ken. Congratulations on that one.

Wow, meters first 1680/8!!!

You only pick the best, very well done and enjoy it

Best,
Andrew.

I'm not normally a fan of gold sports watches but that's pretty cool! Must be the vintage magic at work...

And this is the first (and, please god, only) time I'm gonna tell another man how pretty his nipples are!!!
