Two Rolex Guy!!!(well,almost)

So Santa has come this year!!!

I was 100% sure that this Christmas(for Orthodox Christians Christmas is on January 7th) will pass without any presents that I like(you guess what I like most,right?)and then my mother got a call from family friend who is antiquity dealer.He told her that he got something for me.So I rush into the Belgrade`s Antique Fair and he showed me this beautiful vintage Tudor!!!He opened it for me,of course,and I saw that ETA movement looks and works just perfect.Then he told me that watch is recently serviced and have a waranty for next year(which is remarkable because it`s a vintage)!I couldn`t remember the name of the model,but it`s very similar to the California Dial Rolex Tudor model(both of them have same inscripiton Rolex Oyster Perpetual Tudor).It`s case is unbelievably similar to case of Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date,the size is the same(34mm).
So I bought it!
What a Merry Christmas and Happy new year!

Here are some photos of Tudor and together with Expy!

But that`s not all!!!
As a Christmas gift that friend gave me this Russian manual wind watch!I don`t know anything about Russian watches,but this one looks really nice!
And,at my way out of Antique Fair I spotted something that I desired since I was a kid:Seiko Automatic 200m Divers watch.It was in a near mint condition,but without a strap.I get it for less than 100 bucks!!!
So,It was a tough year for me,but it finished well!

I wish you all happy and joyfull New Year,my friends!
Cheers!

Good for ya' Vukota! 3 in one day, not bad at all. When it rains it pours.
That Tudor really compliments the Exp 1.
Enjoy them and Happy New Year!

Nice addition to your collection!

Very special Rolex/Tudor! Haven't seen one like it before. Could it be a dial mix?

Vukota, watches look great but the Tudor is a redial. Rolex never put both the Rolex and Tudor names on the same dial.

Is it redial?I really don`t know,and I don`t care much,it`s important that watch is 100% real thing.And I found these pics on the internet,a model with both Rolex and Tudor names,very similar to mine.

Beautiful watches. I have the same Seiko, but with a black dial. I've had mine for 25 years. Enjoy them all.
