Looking Foran original birth year watch for my wife, so need a '67 - thoughts on this one? (from a forum member)


thanks.

You probably want photos from all angles, including between the lugs, inside the case-back, etc.

This is a great site to do some research on all the components.

Fantastic seller. Buy with confidence. These guys are the real deal. Know their stuff!

Love this one. Especially the insert!

Agree with Dan S. You need more pics to assess the case overall condition in relation to dial variant. The insert is nice, believe the color and font are correct for earlier ‘60’s gmt.

That’s a misnomer. Ppl think gilt equals fat font on GMT.
Shown is a small or short triangle perfect for gilt and early matte gmts.

Fat font didn’t happen until much later, like on the maxi.

Have been eyeing this exact watch for a while. Great seller and an awesome watch.

insert looks cool and entirely appropriate for this watch.

A 1967 1675 should have the little harrow, I guess this hands are not correct.

Please, whats the "little harrow"? Please describe it and post a photo of it please.

I’m guessing little arrow....and it’s hard to define when those stopped in production...I have a 1.68 mill and it’s big arrow hand 67 caseback

I do not believe all the 1967 GMTs should have a small arrow 24-hour hand. There was a transition period from the end of the gilt era to the early Mark I white-lettered dials during 1967 where you might find a small arrow 24-hour hand on a GMT but to say they all had them during 1967 would be very hard to substantiate.

Also, you need to determine what is a 1967 GMT - for me, I date the earlier watches by their case back stampings and not internet serial number charts. I've owned a few 1967 GMTs that had 67 case back stamps and I remember only one of them having the small 24-hour hand with the greenish glowing lume on the dial and hands. I refer to them as "greenies."

Even some gilts from 67.
