Thanks!

have to say it's just another recased GP030C0. I understand the economics but I'd hate to decide based purely on the looks of the watch and be asked to pay manufacture price. Like you said, Nicolas, it could do with a large, manual wind movement. Now that...

of beauty with the blue dial . Faisal
I like the dial

but it is not for me because of the mismatch of the case with the small movement (10 1/2!). That is a problem with the entire 1966 line for me. Best Andreas
I like it!

I'm normally not a huge fan of blue dial watches but I have to say this one strikes my fancy.
Nice color dial !
