It doesn't just tell time. It tells history.

I bet if you put a nick on that plexi it would hurt to no end!

Yo bro, what a dial...my heart did skip a beat when I saw this dial.
I would have been really jealous if not for my 6538 which has a similar tropical dial!
Vintage gilt tropical, it doesn't get any better. Cheers.

Ohh la la...
1675 Gilt Gloss Cornino with small GMT hand. I Love it to death! Beauty.
That Red-Blue thread combination is indeed unique, tells me it is a handmade band for someone who is really attentive to the details. Awesome touch, like a subtle contrast stitching on cuff buttonhole on a bespoke suit, not gaudy but it will be noticed by the real watch lovers while others will be oblivious. That's the whole point I believe, it's made for you and not for ostentatious display. These little things really make my day.
May be slightly age the bezel, not too crazy, just slightly fading around the outer perimeter...what do you think bro?
Cheers.

Thanks
you are one of the few people to notice this detail. This is a special order for me.
I would have liked that it was lightly faded, but I would not take the risk to mess up this gen insert.
