Had the pleasure of acquiring a "radial" 1675 to compliment my 1680. Somewhat remiss I discovered vintage, very costly hobby!

Clearly a worthy and welcome addition to my recent vintage collection. Pepsi, will be a dead give away to my wife that "she is new". With the 1680, she thinks its the 16610.

Somewhat more unique as the markers are off toward the center of the dial.

Sweet! Those are two awesome watches there. As far as 1675s go, love the radials - here's mine:



Radials harken back to the 60s GMTs with smaller plots that are farther from the edge of the dial

Much thanks, although before I found TRF I was happy with just a 16610.
