The perfect vintage watch. Sat, 13 October 2012 14:42 Go to previous message


I love the early 16750

It is really a unique blend of old and new not found in any other reference...while retaining the plexi crystal...it utilizes the more modern 3075 calibre with 28,000 bph for better accuracy...still matte dial with no wg surrounds on the plots...quickset date.

A great vintage appeal for one who likes a little bit of modern convenience.

time may change me...but I can't trace time...
