It's dinner time in London. Is your wife timing the roast with her Rolex? We are waiting to hear. BTW, my wife bought me a new Seiko Chronograph so I have something to wear when I shouldn't be risking a scratch on my Turn-O-Graph. Same stainless steel and blue color...she knows what I like!

Hi Peter,

Glad to hear it worked out well! The black mark is believed to be some kind of barcode for internal use by Rolex, it's just on a sticker that peels off. Looks like the stickers are still on the crown side of the watch as well, get those bad boys off and see the watch in all its glory!

Chris

Glad it all worked out.
The "bar code" is just a clear sticker that you peel off. There are lots of clear stickers on the case and clasp. Look closely and start peeling.
