Its great you’ve had it a long while. In my opinion, you bought it when no one knew what they were - it’s fact actually. A transitional from 1655 to 16750. If your need to sell is greater than your wish to keep, consider what you’d be happy with bottom line because you will certainly make a good profit. But if you’re comparing yours with non-service examples, you’ll be disappointed. •maybe not your fault it has service parts •if it was in your hands and you didn’t give Rolex instructions NOT to change this or that, well, you have learned something Ultimately, you will not have lost anything having made what should be in the region of a few thousand if you have the original accessories. • inner and outer box have value •booklets are rare and valuable •tags are rare and valuable If an offer is acceptable, for the watch, boxes and paper then negotiate a separately for price for the accessories. You don’t have to sell it as a bundle as you’ll be giving them away and that person will sell accordingly. Research your items thoroughly if you’re not in a rush. Research research research. |

If you were offered $6K, it’s probably a genuine Day-Date, and depending on condition, dial, and details, $6K could be half of its market value. |

Hi folks!
This is my first post so I apologize beforehand if it's in the wrong topic. Anyhow, I've seen a beautiful vintage Rolex that I'm thinking of buying, but since it's quite a lot of money and I'm far from an expert I thought I'd turn to those who are! So to my question: Does this watch look legit, is it original? |

Hi guys. I would like to also step in here, as my new thread in the forum is for some reason not going through. I inherited this nice Oyster Perpetual from my father and know nothing about it. It seems to be pretty vintage judging my the face of thee watch. Any info on it would be very appreciated, thanks guys!

Hi Just got this first vintage rolex 6480 34mm.
It is running very well. I think either 1950,1957 or 1958! Has rivit braclet small logo with frills...58 end links, so maybe 1958!!!! Any thoughts on it...unsual dial layout.. |

You need to study the dial and the hands.. like for a long time..
use a loop and a microscope.. |

Could this be a real Rolex ?
Rolex used to make quartz mechanisms - could this unusual watch be a real Rolex?
