D-Rock there was a MBW GMT II for shure.
I know that By-Tor has a lot of knowledge about of the GMT watches.
Maybe he can help you further.

The gen crystal that was on the before has indeed a more conical shape as the top hat.
This one is almost completely straight , for that reason it's called the the top hat if i'm not mistaken.
They both have the same reference number " 127 " . The top hat is hard to find now a days so i'm happy with this
catch.
Thanks for all the kind words.

Thanks for all the nice remarks and compliments
@ watchguy i agree it makes a hell of a difference a gen top hat or a "normal" gen tropic 127 which was on it ( last picture )

Bought a gen tophat from a member here e few months ago.
Now it's installed and I would like to hear the comment from the experts on this forum on the looks of my 1680.
And one with the other gen crystal which was in before the tophat above was installed( will be for sale soon )
Thank for looking and your comments

Cant see the total amount still needed
I think it will need a new crystal retainig ring to get it
Back to a gen like clicking bezel. I thought about it but i think
It will bring too much costs

I started of with PAM's . Along the road the Rolex models got my attention.
The vintage models with plexi are indeed the nicest. By the way my GMT II is also one of my favorites.
Now a days i have 4 rolexes and 1 PAM 111H in my rep watch box.
