1675

Hey Guys,

I just purchased a 1675 to add to my collection of vintage rolexes. Eventually, I'll end up giving the watch to my son. I am very excited to become a member of this community and I look forward to interacting with you all.

Oh goodness! I didn't expect so many responses. I'm so glad you guys are all sharing your thoughts here with me. I recently purchased the watch from HQmilton and I'm thrilled that I went with the 1675.

Specs:

-Watch is from 1968
-service dial
-service hands
-the bezel hades to this pink looking color and baby blue
-box and service papers
