Hey folks. Really like the site, especially the excellent pics.

I bought the following timepiece pre-owned back in 2001. It's still one of the most refined, clean, and beautiful watches I've ever seen.
I wish I had the box and papers for it but oh well, it still wears just fine.

Don't fret as you can find the correct box and bits for your watch. When you send it in for service you will have an invoice from Rolex that gives it "it's a real Rolex" if you ever sell. I go over and down to Verbena two or three times a month.

Thanks y'all. I like the style and look, but have actually been considering trading/upgrading to something a little bigger.

Not to mention, I took out some links when I purchased it 7 years ago and cannot find them anymore! It's too tight to wear! Anyone recommend a place I can pick up two links for it??
