Got it Tuesday and been wearing it ever since.
The dealer threw in a nice mint black insert and with some helpful advice from a couple friendly modders I artifically aged it. Yes... I was scared shitless while doing it but I love faded inserts and it's quiet rare to see a 1675 (or any GMT Master for that matter) that has a black faded insert. I absolutely love it. This is THE keeper for sure. I say that all the time but this one for some reason feels special. It literally feels like I am wearing history. Beyond the Rolex history I always wonder where this watch has been... I mean it's 40 years old!
Anyways, enjoy some quick pics.
Oh and I forgot... Aging the insert was the first mod I have ever personally done. Feels good.
