Toadtorrent Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Wow...WOW. I love the open 6 faded dialed GMT!! I'll leave it to the masters like you and BT to tell me the actual model number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 Did you catch Etto's GMT on RG? His grandfather was given it in lieu of payment for a taxi fare. Etto thought it was worth getting fixed for his wife to wear, I thought it was worth $20k. http://www.repgeek.com/showthread.php?t=24729 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmg Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 What no 6542.... and they call themselves a GMT collector! Great find Freddy. These two pix (also borrowed from TZ) always makes me salivate a little . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 For your eyes only (pic borrowed from TZ) That's just... NICE! And as you can see no real GMT fanatic even considers the all black bezel. Talking about nice 1675 with pointed crown guards... restorated perfectly. Well Nanuq wouldn't like this because it hasn't been beaten to a pulp.

freddy333 Posted July 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 I'll leave it to the masters like you and BT to tell me the actual model number. Most are 1675s. But the real honey is the VERY rare, original GMT - the 6542 with Perspex (acrylic covered tritium) bezel, which is not 1 of the watches in the picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
