Courtesy of a good friend, I very recently managed to snag a vintage gilt 1016 which I have been looking for a long time, in the right condition.. I'm absolutely delighted with it, and am pretty sure it's going to be on the wrist for a while. I love to sw...

Noticed your preference for natos with the 6610. And I can see why. Lovely specimen too, and the white albino second hand is the cherry on the cake.

... The Explorer 1 is a classic, for which I have a special fondness. Tough, reliable, sporty, cool looking is a very niice watch to have on the wrist. I like to wear mine on its original Oyster bracelet. Here is my picture! Enjoy yours in good health! Co...

Very privileged to try it today, it wears beautifully indeed. For me, I\'d plump for the bracelet, call me a traditionalist but I like my Rolexes on bracelets
Thanks bro!
By: dylan61 : December 31st, 2015-03:08
Indeed I will probably switch it back tonight, haha!
Congrats Bro !

For the kind words Hs111. Indeed the rivet bracelet seems the most right with it, and the combination Just melts right into your wrist.. Had it on distressed leather strap today. ...
Beautiful watch

I have to admit, I was inspired by this site thanks to Baron's Red Depth post. When I saw the Gold Depth come up, it looked really special. I've only see two others with the same dial. Thanks again.
