Oh, and GO BRONCOS!
Now that’s a great looking Tudor! The guy who worked that bezel swap is a visionary!

I always wondered why a straight black version wasn't available from the get-go. Very nice!

I think that's how it should be sold! The steel bezel looks unfinished...

Perhaps I'll swap in the steel bezel (included in the sale) at some point to compare for myself, but I'm really liking the black. It goes perfectly with the dial and the black bit behind the crown and the inlay of the rose on the crown. Not that black text on the steel bezel wouldn't have, but this looks better to me.

So have I! The Albino below is in the current collection, and the group shot shows what has come and gone over the years.

That looks great! How did you get the insert changed? I’d love the info so I can get it done too.

I bought it this way, but I can't imagine it's very different from changing any other insert. I've changed a 16600 and 1680 insert without difficulty.

Pop off the bezel, out with old and in with new. I do place the bezel in boiling water and the insert in the freezer beforehand...hasn't failed me yet.
