I think I have done everything right here. I have bought the seller first. I have examined the watch up close. The colour of the lume on the hands and indices match with each other and with the lume pip. So the overall patina looks right to me. The dial is clean and in good condition. Serviced about 18 months ago but not by RSC. Definitely been polished but looks a pretty good job - I've seen worse. It's a 1980/81 I think without B & Ps and unless you guys can spot something I have missed (as I am as far from experienced in the vintage Rolex world as one can get) I intend bagging this as soon as possible. Any thoughts on the bezel insert are also welcome - to me it looks like a Mk III bezel with serif on the four and a nice long 1 as I think they should be - based on (http://www.vintagehour.com/visual-co...bezel-inserts/)

The seller is a top guy with a good eye for detail and I have no reason to suspect it being anything other than a good, honest example as claimed. I know why he is selling and have just a little history on the watch.

Appreciate your viewpoint positive or negative as it's all part of the due process.
