Enjoying a flat top 4 on a dreary Friday; it is funny the little things you can find enjoyment in when it comes to these vintage pieces

I had my local Rolex dealer check the numbers while estimating the repairs and was told the watch was made in 1969.

I've been in contact with Bob Ridley and will be shipping it off in the next day or two!

I can hardly wait

Looking forward to seeing it. You hired the right guy. That watch will look amazing when completed and he be a great family heirloom.

I was all set to put a Jubilee bracelet on my 1500 but I kept seeing you guys posting pictures of 150x's and 160x's with croc bands and they kept growing on me. I ordered a set of George's end pieces but they haven't arrived yet.
So here is the public debut of my 1500 made in 1967 with the new chestnut crocodile band.

Yeah, they glow brightly, but only for a handful of seconds before fading.
