Finally arrived...my vintage grail watch
What do you do when you finally find your grail watch? Sit back and admire it!! It was a long time in trying to find the right one but couldn't be happier. All original except for a later bezel replacement. Thought I'd share.

Thats a nice one, but I'd start hunting for a fat font bezel - it will make a such a difference IMO

The interesting thing is that it's now my oldest watch and of the 9 I own it's the most accurate. -8 seconds over a week! A testament to the quality of a Rolex timepiece and why we love them!
Thanks for the nice comments guys. :) |
