new to rolex
hi everyone,
I am new to this site, i live in london,and have a rolex oyster date from around 1958 (i think) please see pics and if anyone can tell me anything about this watch that would be great as I dont know very much about rolex and have lots to learn. This is my first rolex and is a great watch although a little scruffy it has lots of charm and i love it. Cheers Sean. Last edited by HL65; 13 July 2011 at 07:58 PM.. |
