Incoming.
Pics coming later tonight.
For now, I'll give you a hint: It's a vintage watch with a service dial that wasn't featured in this recent thread: https://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=286496 Cheers, GW |

Well, I got an opportunity to take some quick snaps at lunch.
So here she is, an early 60's 5512 fully serviced at RSC Dallas a few years ago. New dial, hands, crown/tube, crystal and bezel. Maybe not as sexy as an untouched piece, but I personally love how service dials pop. Cheers, GW

Wow that's nice!! I know I'm in the minority here, but my preference is towards a properly serviced vintage Sub with all the modern bits. This one is outstanding.

Does having a Rolex service dial dramatically decrease the value of a vintage watch?
