Incoming 1675

Had a chance to add that Red Sub last week and fortune smiled again. Many thanks to Phillip Ridley for helping put me into this one. Thank you to Springer for the heads up.

Color matched the hands, serviced and ready to roll. Pressure tested to be used as intended. No need to fret about water.

Cheers.

That is a lovely 1675, great patina, fat insert, and case! Well played…

Darn, that's some good color matching. Watch isn't bad, either.

Thanks, Brian! Perhaps a 73-74. Always hard to know!

I understand it to be a 2. Another seasoned GMT vet thinks it could be a 2.5.
