Old OP with COSC papers

I thought you guys might find these pics interesting. When I was in high school (in the early 80's) my dad gave me his old Rolex. I've been cleaning out my parent's house and came across the watch's COSC papers.

I was looking everywhere for these because I remember seeing them as a kid, and my dad explaining the testing process.

Nice waffle dial! Is the dial marked or is it just the crystal needs polishing / replacing?

Thanks guys for checking out the pics. It was funny because my dad had tons of files everywhere and I was looking for the COSC papers where all of his old watch info was. I finally found these in the "Korea" folder, because he bought it over there during the war.

The dial is OK, the crystal needs polishing...
