I really need to get a black bezel sub as well at some point, but I do love how natural fading works with straps and stainless!

The good thing about a Rolex Sub is that you just need to change the bezel insert and not the complete bezel, unlike Omega.🙁

haha yea like the previous owner of Trev's 2599.80, probably tried an insert change and hosed it. Apparently the inserts can be changed with the correct tools by a watchmaker but its never as clean as if its a full assembly. As for the one on the 1680, evenly faded original 1680 inserts like this one are now worth a fair bit now:

What a beautiful watch. Love it on the bond strap.

It looks fantastic in person. I've mentioned to Ashley that I initially wasn't a big fan of it in photos. It has a real wow-factor in the flesh. Silver bezel looks great.

The black strap is in the bin! was cheap garbage. Actually looking at the development of a high end Australian made line of straps at the moment which could be interesting.
