Thanks for sharing Steve.

I LUV the 16750, and have the WG index with the non 'DATE' dial.

Your matte dial with the 'Tiffany' is sublime!!!

I remember looking at Submariner's in Tiffany's when they were inscribing their name on the dial and I absolutely hated it. I refused to buy one from them for that reason alone. It's funny now they seem so desired by collector's, but I still don't like them. The one good thing is that it does bring back nice memories of looking at these watches so long ago.

I think Hess supposedly has a stash of those Tiffany dials, or did at one time.
