Imagine an AD display case.

I'll take the 1019, 1655, 6263, 6265 and the red 1680 and double red 1665.

£1090 less my 15% discount for these slow sellers - £927.

Better idea .... off to USA to be the tea boy at Bill Gates new small Company.

Possibly it was a mistake.

I believe they were in production from 1959 through 1978,

Nothing beats a desirable Rolex watch

Since several years ago, I had been advising close-friends to buy and wear or buy to keep Rolex watches, in view of their second to none quality of craftsmanship and beauty. Hardly anyone listened to this advice.

Of course, I myself did not anticipate one day the price of vintage Rolex watches will be sky-high like today. As for stocks and shares, as well as gold, their prices see-saw, over the years. However, as for the better and desirable vintage Rolex watches, their price has been on the rise steadily all the time, come rain come shine.
