Rolex Tudor Oyster Royal Watch
Hi,
I am new to this forum I have just purchased a Rolex Tudor Oyster Royal Watch, the watch is gold plated and has a Tudor Rose at 12 o'clock on the dial. I was wondering if anyone out there could give me some information on it please? Thank you very much I have ( hopefully) attached some images of it :) Thks Vyn |

An Oyster Royal is a cool little watch. If I'm not mistaken, the word "Rolex" doesn't belong there and was probably added during a redial, but enjoy the watch!

Nice! The worn gf case gives it a cool two-tone look.

PF much appreicated.
I just love the retro look, I need to get a tudor leather strap and buckle for it, as the one it has on is 'after market'. that will come in time I guess, just keep my eyes open .... Rgds, Vyn. |
