Hey guys,
I am looking for some expert opinion on this particular kind of vintage Rolex(See the pics). The movement is a Rebberg movement which was made in early 20th century, the watch has been converted from an antique to a modern day wrist watch. What is your opinion on it.

Thanks
Rahul

Nice watch!

Can't really comment on a Frankensteine watch...

Is this something that you own, or are you considering buying it?

athom · 10 January 2021, 06:19 AM

What is that ?!

Unfortunately,, the only thing Rolex is the movement which doesnt have much value at all. It is a novelty piece with about 90% fake and aftermarket parts. If you like it then buy it. Hopefully it isnt expensive.

What the £eck is that!?!?!?!

Novel concept, but I feel like the watch has lost it's soul. I like restored vintage watches (even service dials), but I feel this is something different. It's nice to see the Aegler movement in the back but the crown and dial aren't doing it for me, especially seeing as the printing on the dial is very poor. Sorry!

Rishard199 · 10 January 2021, 07:39 AM

Seems the original dial was too small to use it in this project

Rishard199 · 10 January 2021, 07:41 AM

But the movement is in good cosmetic condition

MrChamfers · 10 January 2021, 08:01 AM

Wouldn't the movement be worth like a lot of money?

I wouldn't think so, you see these old Rolex watches around from time to time.

Rishard199 · 10 January 2021, 08:15 AM

I saw some movements like this one but in a very bad shape with the price 250£+

Buy a Tudor DJ instead.

Rishard199 · 10 January 2021, 08:21 AM

Tudor DJ Is another style if I not mistaken

Rishard199 · 10 January 2021, 08:23 AM

But off course every man to his taste)
