First Rolex a 65th birthday present

Attachment 1020003I've owned many watches from my first, a windup, yellow fabric strap Mickey Mouse watch an aunt gave me for my 4th birthday. My wife (who is a watch lover) thought it was time to retire my Ebel and bought this Rolex for me

Better photo

...the watch screamed for a better photo, unfortunately my macro lens revealed lint...a 2.5 second exposure shows second hand time.

thanks for the birthday wishes...65 years a new watch and Medicare!
