1675 Restoration Project
Guys,
I am finally moving on this long time restoration project for an old 1675 i bought long time ago.

The case, in pretty good condition, has a Sn is 295xxx, and the case-back is engraved as II/71, dial, hands and bracelet are missing.

I would like to search for the proper missing parts, could you give some info on witch Mark would be the proper one fro this SN?

Thanks in Advance!

D.

Mk1/2. Both should probably be acceptable.

Guys, I would love to post some pictures, but I am currently stuck in Middle east and my watch is in Italy. I do not have it with me.

I will post picture as soon as I will be back home.

One more question, would a fuchsia bezel match the 295*** Serial? Or are this associated with earlier serials?

For reference, here is my 297XXXX GMT (MkII). As another member has already mentioned, no to the all-red hand if you're looking to go period correct.

Great! Your watch is very nice.
About the All Red I guess it would better on a little later model, like a MK-2 i guess.
