    Nice strap nostalgie. Isn't it just a lovely watch??? I just had to put mine on, as a weekend treat for myself. I still think my blue NATO strap looks the best with the '63, but of all the leather/hide combinations i have seen, yours is right up there with the best- very nice.

    Your watch looks great。 How did you remove the red writing on the caseback? Some say toothpaste, or polywatch works.
    I am holidaying here in China at present, and my 1963 Re-issue is one of the two watches I bought with me. The other being my Speedmaster Pro.
    I love my 1963, in fact, so much I have 2. Regrettably no pics as I left my camera in a taxi here.
    Kind Regards

    I've been trying to find an ST19 based chrono with exhibition back and literally the ONLY thing holding me back on the 1963 has been the red crap on the back glass. I didn't realize you could remove it!

    How are people doing it? If it is a reliable method I'm buying one ASAP since the M199S is now like $650.

    The red letters are inside. You can remove it very easy with aceton. You also can use the nail polish remover of your wife......

    I've also read others using a sugar cube (as abrasive that will remove the paint but not scratch the glass) and also polywatch (as a solvent to dissolve the paint). Make sure you clean it well to remove any residue.

    I emailed Thomas about 10 days ago and haven't heard anything. Has anyone got any ideas?
