Welcome!! But I'm going to warn you that hanging around here is going to be an expensive proposition for you. You'll learn more about the nuances of vintage Rolexes like your red 1680, and you'll likely catch the fever of wanting to make yours as period correct as possible.

You've been warned. Stay at your own risk!!
