Not trying to be a prick but this may be the wrong insert, it doesnt have the correct fat font. Anyway, congrats on your new acquisition

It is a service insert and the bracelet is a 93150 with 580 end links. These were all disclosed by the seller. The dial, hands, caseback, etc. are original to the piece.

Yeah, that was one of the better selling points alongside a minty dial & hands. The insert was a bit of a pain but I weighed the pros with the cons on it!

Do you or anyone in the thread happen to know if the Mark IV 1680 Red uses the MK 2 or MK 3 fat font insert?

Thanks!

Nice. Kirill is a good dude indeed. I have bought several from him and sold him one of these as well (although not as nice as this one).
