Sharing some GMT Love... (PART 2)
Dec 10, 2014,17:42 PM
Hi friends!
As promised in my previous post, I´m sharing some photographs of another example of GMT in my collection.
This one was catched at beginning of year 2013, but somehow I had never taken pictures of it.
It is marked II-65 in its case back, and I keep it with a Jubilee bracelet for a change. I am not very fond of Jubilee bracelets, though I must recognize they are very comfortable to wear. I usually prefer Oyster bracelets in my vintage Rolex, but I feel that the Jubilee looks very nice in old GMT´s.
The dial of this example -gilt-gloss- is in very nice condition and adds to the charm of this watch. The bezel is nicely faded, but I´m looking for another bezel with the blue sector faded almost to silver-gray.
Hope you´ll like this one too!
Best cordial regards, Abel.

... and I´m not fan either of this type of bracelet, but in GMT´s I must confess I like them... in a few of my GMT´s. Regarding the 6542, yes I own one (on a riveted Oyster bracelet), but it has some issues on its dial, and to solve that is one of my stro...
Totalmente de acuerdo Nicolas! Yes, I will devote a lot of time...

... during 2015 to solve this matter of my 6542. This is a watch I bought early in my watch collector career and this is not a timepice to be bought by a rookie. (I learned that with experience!!) Case and movement are Ok, but dial is so so, as well as an...
