1675 evaluation

Hi there,
I have had this 1675 serial 5.1 mil serial since around 2006. It has mostly been stored while my daily wear is a 16610. Have started to wear lately and this sparked my interest in learning more. The bracelet has no markings so am presuming aftermarket. Any ideas about dial/bezel and what would be a correct bracelet?


Btw…there was a celebrity story told to me about this watch. Doubt it could ever be validated.

At that rate it will be quite some time before we’ll get to hear the rest of the story!

Oops. 6 posts under pic posting privilege. So here's the "story." In the 70's there was an actor named Lee Majors. Anyone familiar with his work?

If you write your story out over 4 posts, you'll get the magic 10 that you need

And there is no reason why photos cannot be posted. You cannot post a link until you have 10 posts. Photos you can post from the first post. Love the comment @Zapokee, FAF! So far this has been a bit tedious… but yeah didn't Lee marry the queen of England or was it that new TicTok star? IDK…

Nothing. Nothing at all. It was a tangent that took a hard left and kept going down a one way street that is still going and will ultimately will lead to nowhere.

He meant Lee Majors…aka. The Six Million Dollar Man…aka. Steve Austin…also, The Fall Guy…aka. Colt Severs.

Anybody can post photos.

You need 10 to post url's, but an image can be uploaded and attached using the paperclip, as long as it meets the image size requirements
