Beautiful watches.

I just wish that I could join in

They said finding the right one at the right price wasn't going to be easy and they were bl**dy right.

Stunning piece Jed.

My congratulations to you on such a grail Rolex.

Filling the dial with writing was certainly not a fad back then.

Makes the legibility, imo, so much better than the current modern day Daytona.

Regards
Tony
