LOL, if I remember correctly a friend offered to sell me a mint condition 6263 in the early 90's for a $1000....OOPS
Don't dismiss a Speedy ;)

Spa treatment on the 1675 this morning. Put a black fat font on but quickly changed back the the Pepsi. Brushed the Oyster and buffed the plexi.

Oyster

Hey guys - new to the forum. My first Rolex watch (well, rolex made)

It's an old Oyster Centregraph from the 40's. What do you guys think? It's my first Rolex piece and first nice watch for that matter.
