Wow, that is an old thing.
Do you know the year of production? What kind of bracelet are you going to put on it? Where'd you get it? Questions, I got questions... Congrats on the "new" watch!

Excellent watch my friend - the 1680 is my fav. Rolex Sub.
A nod must go to to Mike also: that man knows a thing or two about vintage pieces.

Thanks guys! This watch is an early edition, 2.29 million serial (I lucked out, puts her at 1967ish). I often wear my white 1680 however, this one might spend most of her time resting in the safe. I would love to see some of the other members vintage pieces too!

I'm about 1967ish, 7/27/67 to be exact so does that entitle me to birth day/year priority if you unexpectantly need to clear out that safe. No need to make a decision right now. I'm just saying...
