Faded Pepsi
I got my 68' 1675 back today from service at my AD. Here's the first wrist shot of my faded pepsi on a faded pepsi.
 Cheers Martin |

Stunning! Did the RSC, through your AD, give you a hard time about keeping any of the original parts, like the dial, hands, faded bezel insert? I assume you told them to touch nothing but the movement.

Very nice indeed.
 I've got a modern version. The strap is a perfect match.  dP

Hi Martin,
Your GMT looks great! I wish my insert was faded like yours, but instead mine's faded like this (too much fade for me!) - |

Looks awesome one the GMT II as well. It took me a while to get the strap faded. Thanks Martin |
