cyphion Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 So I've decided tonight over dinner, that I will probably once again consolidate my collection to one of each of the Rolex models. So currently I have a MBK 1680 and a TC 16610. One has to go. So the choice is sell the TC and keep the 1680 and send it out for lume, etc. Or do it the other way. But I've decided that my collection will be as follows to cover all bases: Jackjo SSDv2 with the works( this one won't leave the stable) A Sub A Tudor Sub A GMT (My MBK that I'm in the process of putting together) A 7032 I figure that with this I can cover just about any base, and be very content. So back to my original question, a 1680 or 16610? Thanks Guys Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danielv2000 Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Based on what you have, I would keep the 1680. The 16610 is too similar in appearance to the SD. My $0.02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utheman Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Based on what you have, I would keep the 1680. The 16610 is too similar in appearance to the SD. I second this opinion, plus the 1680 has lugholes. Vintage is in right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ephry73 Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 A 16610 can have lug holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utheman Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 A 16610 can have lug holes. True, but probably not the one he's talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmj Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Keep Both!! I dare say you will regret it if you let one go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imajedi Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 I say keep the 1680 and sell the 16610 to me. Very simple. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woof* Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Science has proven women prefer lugholes, this has been demonstrated time and time again. Without question...keep the 1680, you will thank me later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panerai153 Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 keep the 1680, it's a classic. the 16610's are a dime a dozen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praetor Posted September 28, 2012 Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 I'd go for the 1680, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyphion Posted September 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Wow, a lot of love for the 1680. I think I'm in with everyone else. Plus Plexi is sexi Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 I guess what I like about the 16610 is the sapphire crystal- makes it much more rugged than the 1680- those plastic crystals are always taking a hit. Of course, 16800 is my favorite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyphion Posted September 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 I really love the matte dial. That's what does it for me. Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mch2112 Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 16800 has sapphire and lug holes. But I've never seen a rep of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyphion Posted September 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 Me neither. It is definitely something that needs to be franken, but I like the 1680 enough that I can be content with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
