: Hello,
: I just received a nice 1163 GMT. I have been tempted to buy one
: several times in the past but never made the jump. I owned a
: 11063 GMT and an 11630 GMT before, this is my very first 1163
: GMT. I love the touch and feel of the plexi.
: However, there are some little things that "trouble"
: me and I'm sure the GMT experts around here will know the
: answers. Here are my questions/remarks;
: * Was this reference originally equipped with an orange central
: seconds hand? I think it should be red.
: * Was this 1163 GMT produced with red subregister chronograph
: hands? I think they should be black...but I have already seen
: more then three of these with red subreg hands...it makes me
: doubt...
: * What about the dial? This is a second execution 1163 GMT, because
: it has the caliber 14 instead of the caliber 11 GMT, it has a
: higher serial number then the first generation 1163 GMT's and it
: uses the second generation GMT bezel. I assumed only the first
: generation 1163 GMT's used this kind of dial, I refer to the
: minute subregister which is completely white while (as far as I
: know) the second generation 1163 GMT's had the three red
: circular striped in the minute register.
: Looking forward to some answers ;-) Here are some pics...I also
: plan to post some "after" pics when it's ready...
