Seeking out a gen 1680 red letter

Recommended Posts

I think I'm at the point where I'm ready to buy a genuine red letter 1680. Having my modded MBW's is great; however, I've found that the littlest thing wrong on the watch really bothers me. Especially on the red letter 1680's, the dials are never correct. I've heard of a Vietnam dial that's the closest rep, yet after months of searching i have still not been able to find one.

So, I am now seriously looking for the real thing. Problem is, who to trust? I've searched TZ, VRF and TURF, and have seen some questionable pics.

If any gen owners can help out, it would be appreciated!

If you do your research, and deal with known members TZ should be fine. Otherwise, try auctioneers. Both of the big houses run specialist sales once or twice a year, more across regions (in which you can phone in bids), and almost always authenticity will have been sought and verified. Although, that's not to say everything that passes through is legit, hence the oft-used phrase caveat emptor.

Good luck.
