Good morning gents!
Pulled the gilt out of the safe. Sometimes I question having this much tied up in one vintage watch...until I put it on again.

Some quick iphone pics I took yesterday morning after having mounted a new strap (Horween Shell Cordovan from B&S) to my 1675 MKI.....IMO a quite nice combo...

It had to be the Day-Date today for the anniversary of the death of Elvis. This was the first record I ever bought. Recorded in October 1976, "Way Down" was the last single The King released before his death. 👑😎🇺🇸🇨🇭
