Sorry, sorry........I meant bezel.....
I remember my first watch when I was maybe 6 or 7 years old, it was a Tissot with interchangeable plastic bezels there were maybe 4 or 5 of them different colours, I think each bezel had different graduation for different purpose, one would just unclip one out and clip another one in I really thought it was cool, I just thought that perhaps Rolex and its different colour bezels was the same. Thank you for your explaination.
Kind regards

One of the nicest looking Rolex's out there...
... in my opinion of course. Fell in love with this piece immediately! Have been addicted to it after Bill posted a few pictures some time back, needed it on my wrist Best, Enrique...
Please expand on this statement.....
do you mean you have never seen an all blue insert and think it is fake, or that you think this particular blue insert is fake..? Blue inserts do exist but they are very rare and this looks like a beauty to me. There are a few threads here detailing where...
Here we go !! ===
Sorry me for my english, is a problem for me explain . This one in particular IMHO is the classic bad fake. BLUE insert exist, they are so rare and cool. I'm a big fan too !! All the best F. http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/9004/1675o.jpg ...
Really?
This piece came from an extremely well respected collector, are you sure, and how can you tell?
i'm pretty sure...
...it's a fake insert, i'm sorry you noticed in this way. you can recognize a fake blue (not only) insert very simply by comparing the numbers 2! as you can see they are pretty ugly in the fake one. sorry again, nice gmt btw. chris
I must be blind.
I can't tell clearly what's the difference. Would you be kind enough to pm me about the detail? Regards Tyler
the middle one...
... is ok, the first and third are fakes. not a great photo but it's easy to compare...as you can see each number "2" has a circular upper part very large and is not very nice... this is a quick way to recognize them. hope i was helpful. chris p.s.: we ca...
Very interesting........
Please excuse my ignorance in this matter but are these dials interchangeable? You buy a Rolex with say a green dial and you can then buy a red or blue or......and just install it on the watch yourself? Just like that? I definitely agree with Nicolas that...
well...
first, thanks... i said that we can find the same fake insert bezel (not dial) on plexi and sapphire gmt both (from 1675 to 16710), but no, not interchangeable! an insert for a plexi watch doesn't fit for a sapphire and viceversa. if you want to replace a...

yep..
...is the same for Rolex but with the same reference indeed. you can switch the bezel between 1675 and 16750 (plexi), or between 16700 and 16710 (sapphire). i guess that is not possibile on 16760 with other reference, but i'm not so sure. hagwe chris
Thanks Chris.
I also notice the "6" and "8" are different. Actually my wife pointed out. This forum is the best. Regard Tyler
Sorry Enrique
But Speedy is right. Your insert is not good to my eyes too. Here are pics of mine to compare. Guillaume [IMG]http://i565.photobucket.com/albums/ss98/ggwilliam/Rolex%201675/P1020736.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i565.photobucket.com/albums/ss98/ggwilliam/Rolex%20...
