Hello From Manhattan, KS!

[Snackmaster]

Good afternoon All!

I joined to learn a bit about Rolex and and the history that surrounds the legendary name. I've always had a thing for watches but never really had the funds to sink into an expensive timepiece as a luxury. I lost my father 5 years ago and as I've only recently started going through some of his possessions that we have in storage I've run across what I believe is a somewhat vintage piece. I'm going to post pics (what would be the appropriate forum to do that in here?) so you guys can see what I'm working with. I have no idea of the history of the piece but it is obviously worn, is without a band of any sort and is in need of some TLC. I've researched a bit online to learn about Rolex in general (hence my finding this forum) so I thought this would be a great first place to start my info gathering.

When I get home from work I'll post the pics and all the info I've discerned from the watch (serial number on the back, etc.).

Thanks for letting me ramble and a big hello to all of you. Incidentally I'm a mod on a Mustang Enthusiast website so I know how to behave and conduct myself on forum sites.

Cheers!
Brett
