Hello from Wales
Hi All,
Just a quick hello from Wales. Although I do not own a Rolex (yet) my mother in law does. Although it is only a cocktail style precision watch it holds huge sentimental value as it was purchased for her as an engagement present back in 1960. Unfortunately, it stopped working sometime ago but I would like to get it fixed for her if someone can please point me in the right direction. Also, I would like to date the watch but other than knowing it is gold the other assay marks appear a little unclear. Would the serial number alone on this watch indicate the manufacturer date? Any help would be greatly appreciated and apologies if this post has turned into a request rather than an introduction. Many thanks. |

Welcome aboard.
 You might want to post some picture of the watch in the vintage section of the forum. Lots of very knowledgeable folks there can steer you in the right direction. |

Thanks to all for the welcome. I did try and post on the vintage section with photos but it wouldn’t let me as it looks like I need 10 posts before I can. Hopefully I will get there soon. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Hi,
Thanks to all for the welcome. I’ve tried to post in the vintage thread as suggested but it seems like I need 10 posts before I can so may take a little longer to get there but hopefully I will. Many thanks. |
