The " Mar Del Plata " is one of my favourite GMTs... As well as the 6610, and I don't even mention the 6542. I don't see myself letting them go, one day. Yes, this is true, they all tell a story which goes way above their owner. My favourite books. Best, ...

Thanks Nico, I think there're different
version of 1675's manaul, the 70s has the blue cloud design. Any post here shows the complete list of such manuals? I assume yours is the pre 70s?
Yes, but you didn't mentuon it. The Clouds were in the 70ies, indeed.
Will try to see where I can find one. Best, Nicolas
Here is the booklet that came with the 16 750.
Still no " Clouds " but let me see if I find it in my mess... Best, Nicolas...
Thanks Nico, this thread is just getting
invaluable with such material piling up! Cheers Mech.
