1675 II 61 Gilt Chapter Ring, Cornino and chocolate dial: Not a new catch, but a bit like love at first sight, each time I put it on the wrist. Best, Nicolas...  

Are those Coco Puff and Popcorn in the 2nd photo?

Too late for breakfast don't you think? We need to talk more about these GMTs. This is one area of vintage rolex I never gotten into. I'm sure a few conversation would change the thinking Regards Tyler

That is a vast topic, Tyler. But this is a topic I encourage you to discover.

...and one of my favourites...Genmaicha...if i am correct? These GMTs .... to be honest, I didn't really love them that much when i first started collecting....but over time they have really grown on me a lot. I don't think I will ever love them as much a... 

Bingo, Baron.

The more you know about these GMTs, the more you live with them, the more you love and appreciate them... You will see... Best, Nicolas

... That´s an awesome watch! Look at the dial... and the bezel!! No one can reach your love and passion for GMT´s but you got a good friend to accompany you in your feelings here! Now that nobody hears in this place, I will tell you a secret: I´m behind a... 

My passion is close to madness when it comes to Vintage Rolex GMTs.

I confess I am still hunting at least 3, maybe 4 or 5 of them... I very well see the one you are hunting... That would be great if you can get it. After;, you may also find an underilne, or, very chic, a Serpico Y Laines.... You see, you're on a dangerous... 

Yeah! I know I´m sailing in dangerous waters Nicolas...

... when I fell in love with GMT´s. A Serpico & Laino? Well, I would die for one! But I know they are not in my budget level. The only one I ever saw here, was a 1675 no guards, full gold case. Dial original brown, was patinated to yellow, inscriptio... 

so tasty!

Saw a couple of vintage Rolex pieces recently and preferred the 5512 to the 1675....these pictures however are titillating. This watch is vibrant in every way and I now equally like the 5512 and 1675! In your view, how do these two models compare? I reall... 

Both are interesting

 
 By: amanico : March 30th, 2012-14:13
I wold say that a gilt cornino 4 lines 5512 would generate a true massacre... Look at Bill's one... But what to say about a watch like the one I posted, or even better, a 6542? I guess it will depend on everyone's sensibility. I am more sensible to the ch...

Very slowly but surely you are converting me Nicolas! From a die hard SUBMARINER only fan to a GMT Master fan swell. The watch is stunning and the colors fantastic. Its easy to fall in love with this every time you put it on...! Enjoy the weekend! E

You will love them, my friend.
