New arrival from Jacek......G??
I have a new Rolex 1675 GMT-Master (well new to me), courtesy of our own Jacek.
What a great pleasure dealing with Jacek it has been. This guy went well above and beyond such that my GMT got to me within 48 hours from USA to Singapore. I have been looking for the right 1675 for quite a while and then this piece came forth. I'm very happy with this classic. The Jubilee bracelet feels great on my wrist, more comfortable than an Oyster and a more relaxed feel and appearance. Here is a photo from Jacek: Jacek1675.jpg And here is what it is several hours after I received the watch and took it to a local watchmaker......... Announcing my GXT-II, customized for my personal wearing pleasure only (and fully Rolex factory compliant and reversable): GXTII.jpg The above is a quick poor lighting photo...better ones when I get some sunlight.

That looks like a Jocke inspired transition. If I could afford the parts I'd build one myself
