New to the Vintage world...

Hello, I am fairly new to the vintage Rolex world. I have owned a Red 1680 in the past but unfortunately it has moved on. I have recently been bitten by the vintage bug again and wanted to share my latest finds. I love the character and charm of the vintage models. I have learned so much from ths forum, thank you all for the expertise you provide.

1979(birth year) 1665 with beautiful patina and faded bezel.





1974 Day Date with crazed dial





1979 (birth year) Tudor 7017/0 Jumbo 38mm




Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics, I will post better ones later.

The Sea-Dweller is a good choice

For someone new, you have done very well. That Sea-Dweller is so attractive and you will never go wrong, with it.
