    I can see why you'd want to trade this -- if you had 2 identical!

    A short story about this watch:

    I had never been a big Rolex guy before.
    Then, this same watch was listed for sale about 10 months ago. I soon became obsessed and completely lost my mind. I had to have it. I sat up nights lining up the pieces I needed to sell to purchase it. But the grail piece that Greg was after never materialized, and his 1675 came off the market. So I pestered him with a few pm's. Even tried to find the grail for him so he'd sell me this watch.

    But it was not to be.

    Happily and soon afterward, I did find an amazing 1675. A pcg with mint cr dial. And I owe it all to Greg, and my obsession with the watch in this ad!

    Good luck in your search Cajun, and nice to see this lovely piece back on the boards-

    Best,

    Todd

    Sorry everyone. I have been overwhelmed with offers. I'll try to respond to everyone soon. I honestly had no idea I would get this much response.

    For now id like to limit the offers to 60's Universal Geneve compax variations.

    Thanks for understanding.
