I always liked this one, although I was dubious about how natural a fade it was...



Presently enjoying this, which is definitely natural...

Some really nice inserts here. :) Just be aware that chlorine can fake faded inserts in seconds. If the insert is faded also on the backside; go figure how that happened.

Speaking of faded bezel inserts...



Faded Fat Lady from 1984, in certain light it's salmon or pinkish even.

I put it on my 16610 Submariner with the 16800 dial. I can't take my eyes off it. It literally changes colors depending on how the light hits it. It reminds me of a car that I used to have. If you have a faded insert on your watch, lets see it.












Superb! :)
