Good morning,

In my quest for a white 1680 (I let pass a previous piece as per fellow Boardmembers' advice on watch state and price) I have come across the enclosed. Serial no 6.1 Million. Bracelet is "Heavy Oyster, Double Fliplock" as per the seller. No other pics yet and I know this one is not high-resolution.

I would appreciate comments on:

i) Dial
ii) Bezel
iii)What would be the period-correct bracelet for this watch.

Thanks a million,

Not sure about the hands and it should come with a non-solid link bracelet for the time period. Bracelet if original to the watch should be light and rattly. Unless you are looking at a safe queen where bracelet will have minimal to no stretch.

1680 whites were sold on 93150's (solid link) so, this one may be correct. Also, the hands look to be newer luminova replacements.

Hands don't seem to be original. Case is rather polished and not very crisp. The crown is quite polished down too where the logo is no longer showing well or crisp.

Michael is damn right! My apologies, I just can't stop thinking of the right bracelet for GMTs.
