Very Rare Rolex Item HERE..
Hi folks, Try and find another set of these; It was the door handle of a Rolex AD on an Island in the EU...It dates to the 1960s and is made of brass...
Photographed next to my LV to give you a sense of scale... No idea what something like this is worth but a nice thing eh? |

Somehow this reminds me of the great 1967 Jacques Tati comedy Playtime, much of which took place in a Paris restaurant where the chair backs had a Rolex-type logo and the diners all had the pattern imprinted on their backs.

Thanks for all the nice comments; I took them as part payment against my old Breitling...
I'm going to see a 2013 white dial steel Daytona this weekend...Might be my first Cosmograph purchase!! |
