Cheers,

I love the variety of the Rolex 1675 Gilt range

MWP my friend! (Mouth Watering Photos I mean ;) )
After viewing them, I can tell you that these are the features I like in a vintage GMT: Gloss, Gilt and chapter ring. Then underline and exclamation point are additional adorns always welcomed but what makes me really happy are the first three mentioned. ...
