ok heres the deal. this is my daily wearer. i would like feedback on how old people think it is and overall condition. i have had Gmt GMTII and i had a 2 tone GMT master with the bonze face and bezel, but i always came back to basic SS and black....go figure anyhow here they are. i didnt do anything to the watch prior to pics, took it off and snapped away, im no pro photographer either!!

Tritium dial makes it at least from the mid to late 90s. Looks great! Bracelet seems tight.

Dwight Yocum had it all wrong - it's not Guitars and Cadillacs but Guitars and Rolex.

Nice Gibson collection. I bought a Nighthawk back in 1993 when they first came out. Gibsons are definately sweeeetttt!!!!!!!!

It has the same dial as my 16610, which is a U series, so I would guess that yours is about the same vintage as mine (1998). Am I close ?

man you guys are GOOD. 1996 bought brand new, been serviced 2 times. the first time they did not do a case refinish cause it was so clean, and the second time i dont think they did either. ( it came back with one mark that has always been there ) the LP are actually growing faster than the Rolo collection. the one in the back is the Slash VOS, and not pictured are another slash VOS and a slash standard. hey thanks all this is a great forum to find and such nice people here. as far as the band practice i need another bass and drummer!!! come ROCK
