The most hideous I've ever seen...

I posted here only because it claims to be VINTAGE.

I could have posted it in jokes because IMO, this has to be the most hideous Rolex? I've ever seen.

Hideous!!!!

Can you beat it?

That watch has been listed on Ebay for years now and it probably won't sell ever. It's horrendous!!!

I've long wanted a 5512, but that's not quite what I had in mind.
