Hannes, my next 1680 will be a red one, too. I love the plexi. BTW: Your lightbox works fine |

Gotta agree Elmar, the 1680 is one of my fav Rolex - I really like how the raised tropic 127 crystal gives the date huge magnification. All in all a really nice vintage Rolex to own.

Very nice Elmar!!
Yes the 1680 has many admirers. I am certainly one of them.
What is interesting is that the date wheel on my 1680 (circa 1970) has closed '6's yet the dial font (660) has open '6's.
I'm assuming yours is a mid to late 70's 1680?

Looks like an early 1970s model with open 6s. That is one beautiful watch. You've got to love those acrylic dial 1680s. =) maverick  |
