Show your Inserts

Thought I'd start a thread dedicated to just Inserts.
I have 8 inserts all together.
I really love them and because of them the GMT .
Especially the 1675 model as they seem to have the most variety.
Everyone of them can become unique in its on fade and even more special depending on the dial.

So, lets start it off.





This is my newest addition Fat Font 2 Tone Rootbeer.

Love the variety of inserts available for GMTs , including all the colour variations from bright & vivid new inserts to the faded almost bleached .

Lee, I get the feeling you like Pepsi.
Those are some sexy inserts.
I love the fuchsia.

What a nice looking set. I missed this group. You have some very interesting faded shades. Very attractive. I love the Black insert. The second and forth ones are almost a rustic brick color, very cool. Fuchsia need I say more.

I like kissers as well. I don't own one at the moment, but I hope to in the future.
Sweet collection. A little cranberry with that fuchsia.
Thanks for sharing.

Interesting fade on your sub Gileto at the 40 and 20 marks. Cool. Also Your Pepsi looks very crisp.

GMT21 . Long E and a Fatty, sweet.

Rolstaff, really 2, you don't need 2 of them. Let me take one of your hands for free . I have yet to get a Fuchsia insert. Maybe sometime down the road. They are expen$ive, but I shouldn't,t complain because I've dropped some dough on a few.
