A purchased a Ladies-Date SS watch for my mother in 1983. It was the blandest, most boring watch Rolex made for a woman but it was all I could afford as a gift. (white dial, plain bezel, Oyster bracelet). Fast forward, my mother passed away and I inherited the watch back and wanted to give it to my daughter. I purchased parts off ebay to convert it to a Frankenwatch; white dial with white gold Roman numerals, an engine turned bezel and a Rolex plastic crystal. Bottom line, I sent it to Mark and he did a nice job putting it all together and overhauling the movement. I had zero complaints with my work. There was no way I was going to spend $900 just to overhaul the movement. If there is one problem with Mark, it is probably that he does not have a Rolex parts account.
