Icon14 It's arrived!

The latest member arrived yesterday and I'll wager no-one can can what it is?!!!

It's off to the RSC on monday so you'll all have to wait about 12 weeks or so I guess until the 'before & after' shots (I'm assuming, that is, that RSC UK are willing to service it!)

Congrats on your newest acquisition. Looks like some sort of vintage submariner. Good luck with the restoration and servicing!

Thanks for the positive comments guys .

I'll be happy if it only takes 12 weeks at the RSC, Bexley to be honest as I've had others that have been there longer but it is worth it!

Parachrom - it of to the UK Rolex service centre at Bexley.

Spogehead - no idea where the 'can can' came from...I'm such a muppet sometimes .
