I don't know, but I hope when he shows up on this, he'll give us all the details on these babies.

Thanks pal, Instead of me writing 6 pages about it you can read all about the Midas here: www.rolexwatchblog.com Scroll down and look for Elvis Presley in the right column.

The King Midas is a very nice watch if you like gold
At least you wont see every yo yo on the street wearing 1 and as far as I know china town doesn't sell em.

Id love to own a Midas with the original box and all. It really is an AMAZING Piece! I am not a huge Gold person but that is one I would wear with pride when dressed up.

Leo ..care to disclose how you got your watch, if it is not too much to ask for.
I am hoping for a good story here.. so embellish the details please.. maybe involving Elvis himself..
