Good stuff or a bunch of junk?
I walked into a little shop this afternoon and thought of the vintage Rolex section of this forum. Anything look good here? Or mostly junk?

A real mixed bag... might not even all be real, judging by these pics.

I liked the 1803 and 1601, not sure about the Explorer or the Tudor Princes. Really not sure about any of them as I would not know what to look for. Thanks! Anything there worth something if it was found to be real?

The DD looks good. TOG looks like a redial. DJ ok as well.

The TOG dial is a very dark green. Too bad about the Ranger.

The Explorer is a redial at best. IMHO

Looks to me like the DD is a Wide-Boy dial with stick hands. That's not wrong or anything, it's just not as much fun as the Wide-Boy hands.

WOW - how much for the day-date with the red vignette dial? That's an amazing piece, very hard to find!
Do they have a website - LOL |

The vignette DD is what caught my eye. I really like the one without diamonds.

Thanks for all the info. Cheers! btw, they had about 4 IWCs in YG there as well. To the right of the day-date with the red vignette dial is one in Platinum.

There are many nice peices in there. Careful with the explorer because alot of that style are re dialed air kings. What was the price of the white dialed bubble back rolex? Its the white rolex on the left side of the photo, it says oyster perpetual & at the bottom it says certified chronometer? Its nice, I like that one, find out the case number, it could be a nice collector's grade bubble back

Is that a 1030? I asked and the YG one is about 7k and the SS model is about 3k. But the SS one has really been messed with on the case. It has been engraved on the back as well. I don't think anyone would like it really. Cheers!

Pretty cool collection. That deep red DD vignette would be stunning on the right strap.

I guess prices would tell the story. A redial at a great price for example.
