I love it Fred! I couldn't be more pleased to be able to find a 26300st in mint condition and complete like this one. And the "H" serial was icing on the cake.

I am good friends with the owner of the APSC in Canada so he made my dial swap a priority.

Thanks again for the inspiration Fred!

Was the 26300 ever offered in an E serial? There is one for sale on this very forum with an E series archive paper. Thought the 26300 started with G series.

My understanding is the E and F serials belonged to the 25860st reference, and the G and H serials came out with the 26300st reference. I could be wrong though.

The watch looks fantastic! Does APSC give customers a hard time when requesting dial swaps. I have a 15400.OR and would love to eventually swap its silver dial if at all possible.

The APSC I work with has no qualms about ordering dials on my behalf. The 15400or reference has been around for several years now so different colored dials should be readily available.

Let me know if you need my help.
