Is this the correct insert for this 1680 RED Mk 5?
Hello Guys,
You helped me a lot in another thread with my purchase of and 1675 Mk1. Thank you a lot for that! Now this question if regarding my older 1680 red. A few guys told me that the insert does not match this watch, so I wonder if in could get an second opinion from you guys. Please take a look at these attach pictures and let me know your thoughts! If you want me to post some more pictures, let me know! all the Best, Seb |

I realize it's just semantics, but yes, that is a "correct" insert for your Sub. It just happens to be a service insert, not one that would have been originally installed at the factory by Rolex when the watch was new.
