1675 Fuchsia Inserts, what is going on?!? $$$$$
Genuine fuchsia do look nice, but I’m with those who prefer them on the correct SN 1675 they came with originally. Seeing them on a gilt makes me cringe , but to each their own and beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

So finally pulled the trigger on an insert! After that and the bracelet, I think I’m done for awhile! (Eventually will replace the service dial, but am in no rush and kind of like it).

I believe it’s the first series of service dial? But I’m not sure. Anyone out there know?

When I hold a light against it at night, it glows bright, so assume that’s luminova, even though the dial says T&lt;25. I’ve read that some of the earlier service dials kept the T&lt;25, even though they gave luminova. Can anyone add to the validity of that?

If you pay 4k+ for a faded worn bezel, you are being had - and not because you are a newbie.

A fool and his money have always been easily parted, no matter how much you learn about rolex.

I’m sorry, maybe I’m a “newbie”, but isn’t the entire point of buying and owning a watch to get something you like/love? Or are you only doing this as an “investment”.....?
