Red has faded to a nice hue of reddish-pink and blue slightly faded as well.

Now all i need is a BNIB Pepsi to complete my set..

Thanks Lunny!

I do enjoy the watch, and with different inserts, there's always a new look to this timepiece.. :)

Hey guys. I've built 2 1675s from the cartel case so I'm familiar with it but which is thinner? Cartel 1675 or 1655? Or are they the same?
