Thirsty? Incoming Coke
I usually don’t post incomings, but since I purchased this Coke from a fellow TRF’er, I wanted to share my find.
Picked up this unpolished T serial 16710 Coke with original tritium dial and hands from Chris and ErikSzper at Radcliffe Jewelers. Great experience, thank you guys! It’s my first 5 digit reference, and now I really understand why the pre ceramics are so beloved. Love the neo-vintage look and feel of the hollow end links and holes case, and the warm patina is just lovely. Here’s a pic with the least amount of glare I could manage.

Very nice, congrats!
I have a T serial 16710 as well. I agree with the charm of its originality but I have been going back and forth with the idea of servicing it to restore the lume. I've been curious to hear what others have done in this situation. |

Keep it original brother. It's getting harder and harder to find original tritium dials and hands on references from that time. You might get lume now if you change, but you will lose the vintage appeal, and maybe one day a long time from now, less collectability. Plus the creamy patina is the coolest! |

Thank you brothers!! The pic came out horribly through TapaTalk for some reason. It's in perfect shape and I'm really enjoying it. Thank you again! |

Very nice watch. Congratulations!
As a side note, I bought one of my very first watches from Erik about 10 years ago. Nice guy, I’d buy from him again. |
