Rolex 1500 Inquiry - Need Help

Hi Rolex Friends,

Im hoping you can offer your advice today.

I have just bought a vintage 1500 34mm, seller told me its a 1963 year. The seller is a member from WUS and very nice and i have confidence in his honesty. However the serial numbers and model numbers are completely worn away from between the lugs. The watch looks and feels right except the numbers are gone. Is this normal for an old vintage Rolex in your opinion? Will this affect being able to resell?

Here are pics of the lugs, front and back and crown side.

I hope you can offer me your advice of what you see in the pics and if it looks all good or not. Also how can I date the watch without serial numbers? Does the watch still have resale value without the numbers?

I hope I am only overreacting and this is totally normal situation. Thanks in advance for your wisdom.

Heres link to images.
