A pair of Radial 1675's
Hey guys

I just wanted to share some pics of my pair of Radial Dialed 1675's. I must admit that Vintage GMT's tell a hell of a story and show a lot more soul then the modern Rolex's. Don't get me wrong.... I have been wearing a Deep Sea for about 6 years ( going on 7) for a everyday watch, but these 1675's are fun to wear!!


Thanks for looking :)

Not often you have a thread with 3 different Radial Gmt's.
All great looking.

See how the minute markers are longer than usual? Makes the dial seem smaller, sometimes they're called mini dials

There is also a larger gap between the round hour markers and the seconds hash marks.

This one here is a different watch. The other one I told you about is the unpolished radial but I don't have any photos of it at this time. Sorry, and thanks for the comments, both Nate and MP5.

Gorgeous! I sold my Radial and regretted it ever since. I'm still on the hunt for a new one.
