Lady date?
Mom is looking at a watch at an auction local to her. Unfortunately i am not close, and she doesnt take the best pictures. So posting pics here on the slim chance can get verification before bidding on it. Naturally no box or papers, but appears to be a 65 or 67 series lady date.

its not an ebay auction its at a local auction house, those pictures were taken today by my mother lol. She doesnt know what she is looking for, and takes bad pictures accordingly. We both wanted to have at least a bit of assurance before she tries to bid.

Caseback is correct for a 50s ladies Rolex.
But bracelet looks plated to me?
Really not sure so I advise, do not buy.

bracelet to me seemed pretty worn and stretched, i think if plated it may have worn off at that point but who knows. will probably have her watch it and see what it goes up to. if it is cheap then may be worth the risk.

Hi David

Thanks to let me know

Why do you feel the bracelet is plated?

Just in some places, I thought I can see the SS below the gold. It just looks rubbed in some places. No?

It looks like lighting or poor image quality. Hard to say.

But with that much stretch, I would expect a plated bracelet to have very obvious wear marks.

Why? This may go at a bargain price.

That's a ladies 6917... probably 70s but possible up to early 80s. Bracelet appears to be 18k which would make sense if this is a 7 or 8 million serial number model... of course, it is impossible to make a definitive diagnosis based on these pics alone!
