I have a question here. Will a modern Sub insert fits into older 1680/1665 model? Thanks a lot. I am talking about genuine insert to MBW vintage 1665.

I was under the impression they wouldn't. The measurements are different both in outer radius, and inner--due to the differing bezel & crystal sizes.

Great, it's OK, I bought an aftermarket bezel for 1665 too... Maybe will toss that genuine bezel to the market :p

No pics. My camera is down :(

It's the insert. Actually it's for 16800 or 14060M but still with tritium pearl. I may not install it on 1665 for accuracy sake but it fits 100% right.
