After acquiring this lovely original 1016 I knew that something was missing, a Domed Tropic! After sourcing a NOS T22, having it fitted, new end links, bracelet brushed up, wow what a difference! Hopefully the pictures will portray this.. Let's see all those 1016's?
There's something a bit special about these little vintage babies that one cannot explain...

Far better Vince! The dome adds so much depth to the dial.
A 1978 version, had a movement service but case and plexi left as I got it. http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g2...psc6b5xiaw.jpg
Lovely Vince, what a difference, didn't like these before but that has changed my view.
Very nice Vince. Can't beat a classic 1016...

That looks lovely. Was nice before, even better now!
Looks good Vince!
I've promised myself a 1016 one day. In my mind would be the perfect watch to put on your wrist and wear forever.
These 1016 are really stunners!
Awesome looking 1016's.
My favourite watch. It's good to see the love for this classic. There was a time not so long ago when every mention here of the 1016 brought cries of 'I love it, but too small'. Tastes are at last changing for the better.
Here's mine gilt dial chapter ring
