DJ 16234 Clasp?
I'm looking at an ebay listing for a 16234. The lug holes put it pre-1995 (I think that's when they removed the lug holes).
Might be a W serial (1994) based on writing inside the case back: http://i.imgur.com/RQQ1gRe.jpg Most of it looks good IMO but I'm suspicious about the clasp, that's an area I'm not too familiar with. Clasp here: http://i.imgur.com/zjCbEG0.jpg The stamping looks too "fat" to me and the year might be off. From referring here: http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=54362 it looks like the "C2" puts it around 1978 (unless I'm reading the code in the image wrong) and that clasp doesn't look 45 years old (...if it's original to the watch it shouldn't be). A few more photos: http://i.imgur.com/kXKvrbM.jpg (crown side) http://i.imgur.com/poOgTck.jpg (flat side) http://i.imgur.com/2r5QZ69.jpg (back) http://i.imgur.com/6VrvPmF.jpg (front) Thoughts on the clasp and anything else look off? (Sorry for not embedding the images; they're huge) Thanks! |
