Got some moisture in the 1680 after a day of construction and a hot shower...

 

So I set the crown tube deeper, changed the case back to the one that came on the rep (rep o-ring seales better on this case back) and swapped in an over-faded bezel insert to change the look a bit. What do you think now?

Guys! You are killing me with these beauty vintage Daytonas!

I have been formerly asked not to post any of my vintage Daytonas.

Thanks! Crown looks much better took an hour to set it a mm deeper. Insert is too faded in my opinion, but it looks better than shiny new!

I'd need to get the markers polished off the bezel... Does nothing for the watch IMHO...

Oh, but it does.. Rob.. it does..

In person it's stunning! the numbers on the bezel, the tux dial, the hands, personally one of my all time fave Pams.

Might need to swap you one of mine for a trial period Omar... Up for it?

 

You can chose any one of these:

 

288

297

312

332

372

390
