I thought your watches might want to see a photo of their granddaddy!

Well, the last 21 years or so would not be very interesting. It laid in a drawer for most of this time because I didn't know what I had. I knew it was a Rolex, but that was all. I wore it to Bangkok three or four times and that's it. In 2002 I offered to give it to my brother-in-law who wanted a Rolex but he refused it because it was too old and he bought a new GMT instead.
![]() As for the first 28 or 29 years I wouldn't know. It belonged to a construction worker and it's obvious it was being worn due to the replaced insert and minor scratches on the lens, bracelet and case. The only interesting thing I came across was a watch with a serial # only 38 points different was listed for sale by a vintage watch business in Versallies/Paris about two or three weeks ago. They had to have been made the same day or or close to it. Dave |
