Thanks Dave, Philip, Kevin, and John!!

Thanks Jeff!! It took me quite a while to find and with it being in this condition, shade, and also being one of the first white subs ever made, I just had to have it!!! Waited for pretty much 2 months after I found it, trying to convince the owner that he sell to me. So happy it's in my hands now!!

Beautiful 1680! Always love the roundness of the acrylic crystal. A bit off topic, but mind if I ask where you got the bead bracelet? Been looking for a nice one. Thanks!

Thanks buddy! The 1680 is always a classic with its top hat crystal!!

The crystal bracelet was purchased in China. This type of crystal is supposed to bring luck and fortune and are quite popular right now! There are several different types each signifying something different. If you visit a Chinatown in the US, I'm sure you can easily find one in a boutique shop of something.
