I've just put back the original bezel and insert on after a few months with the faded fat font one. Loving this black fat font for a sharper and more defined look again. And of course, it's the original, which you can never beat. It's good to have options! Strap is black horween cordovan.

J!m · 2 March 2016, 12:59 AM

I prefer that insert.

Faded is fine if it is original to the watch. Over-faded inserts on otherwise pristine watches is like buying faded and ripped blue jeans. Doesn't make sense and it is not authentic.

Vincent65 · 2 March 2016, 01:01 AM

Fair enough - I like both, but I see your point. BTW - most people buy faded jeans!

J!m · 2 March 2016, 01:07 AM

Yeah, maybe not the best example but you get the point.

I also thought a little more about what you said, and although uncommon, there are great 'pristine' examples surviving today with their original inserts, which are naturally faded.

Here are a couple of examples which I have:
