My new daily

For the time being this is my new daily.
What ya guys think?
I know its not perfect but I wanted something I could wear, I have a physical job. So far its kept PERFECT time and has'nt needed winding. I had my expectations set low as its a vintage, but I can't fault it at all.

Thank you for taking the time to view.

Nice Patina on that white Sub.... I really enjoy the 1680 white subs, as they are lighter and slightly smaller than my sapphire crystal subs....

Congrats...

My 1680 has been my daily wearer since I got it a couple months ago.
Such a great watch, I can't take it off.
Enjoy!
