Looking for a replacement insert for my 1675 GMT

[Frazzle1]

Hi guys, been a long time since I posted on here, lots going on but I have been dipping in and out browsing.

 

I have a gorgeous modified 1675 GMT that was built by Odesseys (I keep get the spelling wrong)

 

The spec is as follows

 

Rolex 1675 Build, based on a 1965 El Cornino without the gilt dial

 

Genuine Swiss ETA 2846 low beat non hacking movement (as per gen caliber 1565) - Hacking movement didn't come in until 1971

 

GMT mechanism locked to midnight - time zone is set by bezel (as per gen)

 

Clarkes T25-116 Crystal Fitted

 

Clarkes Bezel fitted which has gen spec profile.

 

Clarkes Bezel installed and lightly faded

 

Crown guards re shaped and case re polished.

 

Hands and dial re-lumed with vintage lume (watch lume.net)

 

Genuine Rolex USA Jubilee Bracelet with big crown clasp.

 

Rafflestime Caseback, with sterile inside surface

 

Technically correct 1675 engraving at 12 o Clock and 6 o'clock. For the keen eyed, the serial number on the case would date the watch around 1974 and this case is obviously based on an El Cornino which stopped around 1965. Also Rolex didn't start engraving the lugs 'Orig Rolex Design' until the 80's I've never got round to having it changed to something more suitable.

 

Anyway, my dilema is that although the bezel insert is lovely, ever since seeing a gen with fat font insert i have fallen out of love for the skinny font Clark’s one I have. Can anyone recommend where I could acquire a better insert please.
