george1 Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 Just received my new GMT master ruby/diamond from Precious time, a superb dealer and a superb watch, am a vintage nut so this was my first depature into modern reps and I must say I am blown away with this, the date font alignment and mag are spot on and the dial is SUPERB, watch has a feel of quality to it with regards to weight and apperance, does not look to me as if it needs any mods at all (damn) and looks, dare I say it "real" looks like no more vintages for me!!

Guest TTK Posted July 7, 2006 Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 @george....you need to read Pugwash's guide to taking better pics......if these are nice as you say they are.....then your photos are doing no justice to them....and in fact could be said that they are making a liar of you......you need to abandon flash when you snap watches......just some friendly advice.....!

Very nice 1665, but unfortunately, that's not a genuine insert. Genuine vintage inserts for 1665/1680/5513's look like this: MBW on the left; genuine on the right Installed Also... You'll want a Tropic 39 for the Sea-Dweller; Tropic 19 goes with the 5513 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george1 Posted July 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2006 http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i39/geor.../Picture158.jpg some more pic, point taken on the insert, could not find an acrylic pearl so used later one, tropic 19 was all I had at the time , looks ok on the watch though.

There are some flat T-39's around... As well as Superdomes too And... Occassionally, some of the acrylic pearls show up on eBay... Nice looking 16713... Is it the solid 14k one from PT? P.S. Nice to have another vintage nut in the house Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george1 Posted July 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 Hi, yep 14kt gmt from precious time, I suppose I would be better of popping the pearl out of the sea dweller, just bugs me anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
