You say seller is 2 hours away from you--just curious, in total to check out the watch, negotiate and seal the Craigslist deal how many round trips did it take?

I thought I made a good deal buying the same ref with no papers for $4200. Great find!

The day of, I drove to his home, trimmed off an extra 150 providing the watch proved authentic then he followed me back my way to the RSC. After I paid the man we went on our separate ways, he an hour and 40 min north and me 20 min south. Besides email time I took about 5 hours and 1 round trip out of what would have been a slow day. |

Thats a great watch because you CAN do so much with it in terms of bracelet and bezel options. Plus its just about the best looking Rolex watch ever made. Enjoy it!
