My Rolex is back from Dalton! (LOTS of pictures)
So I come home today not expecting to see my watch till tomorrow and I find a slip telling me I have a package at the post office. So I fly down to the post office and I am handed a small box...
OK enough words... time for pics! Dalton... in California... I wonder what that could be....           Time to take my everyday/everywhere watch off....  Side by side...  And boom goes the dynamite     Oooo... extra parts.. its like when I build furniture from IKEA  meh... they don't look important. and another pic for good luck So, what can I say? Things have come full cirlce with this watch. 30 some odd years with my dad... a bit of bad luck... a bit of work.. and now it sits on my wrist looking good as new. Couldn't be happier. And for those who haven't seen the other thread: http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=49697 |
