Thanks Larry - yes, pretty comfy. I'm a hairy ba$t@rd, so it catches a little sometimes, but much less so than the folded-link Oyster on the 1680!

I love the look - a bit dressier but still sporty, and it catches the light very well. It really suits the GMT, and makes a nice change from the few Oysters I have on the other watches. I still prefer the Oyster, overall, but this is a great addition, and I think it's perfect for his watch.

I'd still like a 7206 as well, but the prices are nuts these days. I had the 'chance' to buy one in 2011 for about 800 bucks, and I passed, thinking it was too much...

Indeed I do mean yours. I have a 6636 on my 69 GMT and am hairy like you so it now has a 93150 which is way more comfortable.

Congrats, that is in beautiful condition. Great FAT fonts on that insert.

"Wow.

"Looks perfect with the oval link"

Thanks guys! Just to clarify, I've had the watch since April - I just swapped the insert recently for a change, and then bought the Jubilee for it this week.

Thanks my friend. I still love it in its original configuration too, but this has transformed it, and I love this look, too.
