Watches - another OCD problem

[Qinhan]

A month or so ago I got to finally pick up my GMT.  Totally loving the splash of colour:

nice and clean GMT

very nice addition to your collection @Qinhan .  I also added a vintage GMT fairly recently, a 1675, think they are great pieces.

Thanks guys.  I love the colours on these watches.  They really pop on the wrist.

This one?

Speaking of over-priced GMT's, this one went for 3.5 mill. recently:

Not exactly something you'd want to wear out but still gorgeous.

LOL.  I think Tempvs probably beat me to that one.  I got a gilt/chapter ring/exclamation dial, waited a while to track the right one down.  Here it is alongside its modern counterpart:

I like the green / gold bezel, in fact I prefer it to the Pepsi.

Obviously that proves you shouldn't listen to me when choosing watches that might be future collectibles.

Looks a fantastic GMT. Mid 60s?

Hi @Tempvs I wasn't sure if you were asking about my GMT or another one, but in case mine then thank you and it's 1960 or 1961 if I recall correctly, the second of the Gilt dial 1675s

Those old GMTs are great and one of the only Rolex's that is under valued in my humble view. Only thing is be careful with the bezel as it's easy to mark but impossible to replace with one that has such lovely historical wear and ageing.
I'm wearing this today.

Been trying the GoodArt watch strap on a few of my watches. It works very well on certain watches.
Its probably the nicest aftermarket strap I have ever had. The quality is of the chart and the silver furniture will age very nicely.
