I've just put back the original bezel and insert on after a few months with the faded fat font one. Loving this black fat font for a sharper and more defined look again. And of course, it's the original, which you can never beat. It's good to have options! Strap is black horween cordovan.

J!m · 2 March 2016, 12:59 AM

I prefer that insert.

Faded is fine if it is original to the watch. Over-faded inserts on otherwise pristine watches is like buying faded and ripped blue jeans. Doesn't make sense and it is not authentic.

Vincent65 · 2 March 2016, 01:01 AM

Fair enough - I like both, but I see your point. BTW - most people buy faded jeans!

J!m · 2 March 2016, 01:07 AM

Yeah, maybe not the best example but you get the point.

Beautiful watches, Ken and Karl!!

I also thought a little more about what you said, and although uncommon, there are great 'pristine' examples surviving today with their original inserts, which are naturally faded.

Here are a couple of examples which I have:

It would be good to see some other angles and settings in your watch photos, to do them better justice. No offence meant, just my 2c

Thank you Karl brother! No offense at all, I have been criticized many times for not getting good pics of these watches
