My new 1675

Got it today. Serial 285xxxx Mk1 dial. Came with loose but dated 71 7836 bracelet and 280 endlinks. Going to be sent to RSC for movement service. Thanks to those that helped answer a few questions when I first saw this lovely watch

They were very sensitive to the needs of vintage watches. In fact they now have a slightly higher charge for servicing vintage pieces. The quote actually states no external parts to be replaced.
