1675

Hi
Last week I tried posting this but had difficulty getting the pictures on

Would love to hear your thoughts on this 1675 5.2mill serial.
Insert on the watch is red back,
spare insert is blue back and comes with spare oyster bracelet seller asking 13k€
No box no original papers
Located in Belgium

Thanks in advance
Yosef

You would have to decide if you can live with the case, which is a bit uneven from polishing.

I don't think its priced badly, just once you've had it on your wrist for a period of time will you be able to handle it? The other option is to have the case rebuilt.

Thanks Tom
I didn’t even notice before
Did you like the patina on the dial and wear marks on the bezel?

Do u know a vintage Rolex specialist in Belgium

I dont like the patina on the dial and hands, seems greenish... its a matter of taste I guess.
the insert is too worn out as well. Most important is whether you like it or not...

Yeah I agree with that. The case is quite over polished, as reflected by the protruding pins.

The crown guards have also been polished poorly and have lost their original lines. The dial to me is not too bad, but would want something nicer at this price point.

At $15k US, I’d pass on this.
