WOW!
That is certainly some stretch on that bracelet.
Congratulations on returning a true Rolex classic to its true glory.
Now wear with pride, as it was a gift from your Dad.
It will no doubt bring you many, many years of loyal service.
Enjoy.

What a great restoration. Love the bark day dates. So much character.

Congratulations! There’s truly nothing like a family heirloom watch.

Wonderful that you got that bark bezel for it, too (though I admit to a preference for the original 8+2 dials) - I assume it’s a 18078?

Bark is such a great look - Enjoy!
