69173 Vintage Rolex Pics after RSC Full Service

This is my mother's Rolex and her mother's before her. I had a full service done and here are the pictures. I didn't think to take photos of the box and papers but she has all the original packaging and documentation. Enjoy.

I should have taken before pictures. Oops. They did fabulous job, though...it was pretty battered before. It hadn't been serviced at all its entire lifetime from what I understand.

I took it to Rolex Service Center Chicago/Sutter's Watch Repair.
