I didn’t buy it but thought it looked to be a nice example.
Did these come with a leather strap as an option? Did Rolex even make an 18k oyster? I know there were 18k Jubilee’s.
I do like the 1570/5 movements. They are nice movements to work on.

Nice one at that price, wish I’d seen it before it ended.
18k 7206 rivet bracelet would look great on it.

Moral to story - Never put a marginal demand gold watch on eBay at $99 starting....they sell at about 50-60 cents on the dollar retail if you do.

Only watches you should do that with are super hot 'overs' pieces or something everyone knows and wants, but even then you'll only get about 75-80 cents on the dollar (retail).

I snaffled a lovely original 6611b Daydate for £3.5k as a result of someone doing it!
