Vintage Rolex Date 1501 GILT questions
Stumbled upon this and in an attempt to learn more about all things vintage, I pose the following questions:
https://theoandharris.com/vintage-wa...te-ref-1501-2/ - How did they manage to fit a 78360 bracelet on a 34mm watch? is this a deal breaker - Arent 455B end links prevalent among aftermarket/fake parts? - Is a gilt dial on a 34mm model worth this much? *images taken from their website |

That bracelet has mashed the ends of the lugs badly. At that price, I would pass IMHO

Sad that the end links are not real. Incorrect bracelet too I guess. I love the head of the watch though.

Pass. It's been diddled.

Should the back be all brushed or should the bevel be shiny?

A gilt dial is always gloss. Lacquer was used to seal the brass letters from tarnishing.
