It is a great watch. One of my favorite Doxas as well. At 1 time I had D-Star and Carib and still to date 1 of the most comfortable watches to wear.

Looks great, Mark. 750T is the sweetspot and GMT is icing on the cake

not a gmt fan, but over all it looks great! i like how the GMT hand isnt very obtrusive, something i think many gmt watches lack.

One of my favorite Doxa GMTs. :thatshot: Never had one, but wanted one for the longest.

Trev, the 750's, and the 600's and 300's for that matter, are in a class by themselves. I think DOXA started cutting corners after the 750's.

Think you're right David, just never was impressed with the TUSA 1000 and for DOXA to keep 50 and pre-sell them to their best customers at 2 grand was just so nice of them! :shrug: I bought mine from Tusa at not much more than a grand, after a couple big wigs got theirs they had a hard time selling the other 40 pieces! :snooty: Always wondered how the 50 Doxa customers felt when they realized they got boned! :think:

Thanks guys for the nice comments. I bought one new Doxa, a 1000T SH. Then I received a 5000T SH in a trade. I said WOW. Kept it over a year. The 750T Carib GMT is very nice, not sure if it has staying power.
ps. it didn't. it's gone. dial too busy for me.
