Hello,

I'm a new member and am just getting started in the watch world as a result of a watch I recently received from my late father. He left me a vintage Rolex Day-Date Oyster Perpetual...with the original boxes and paperwork. He bought it new in Okinawa Japan in 1966. I can't seem to find much out about it. Where are good places to look for info on vintage watches?

Uploading images to the forum seems to be kinda exceedingly difficult....
