Hi Larry, thank you! Vintage are so much fun. Especially when you know just enough to get yourself in trouble! I've always admired your collection, particularly the 1675 and 1680!! And I do see a red sub in my future...

Thanks Joe, they are all so unique. It makes it interesting to look at each other's collections. Looking forward to your next addition.

Thanks Andy - much like your recent acquisitions, but they are all different. Gotta love vintage!

I've actually been thinking about putting the original fat font, very black insert back on, though, (as I did with the 1675 recently). Just thinking about it

Here's how the original one looks - very cool, and totally different.

What ever strap or insert you put on this RED it always looks great... Id love to have a very black mint insert like yours to go with the faded and very faded insert.. Its like buying nice clothes for the kids.. hahaha

The more I wear this the more I think I want a 1016 next. So comfortable and I think it's the best fit on my wrist.
