Incoming - 1680!
This is my first time posting in the Vintage section. I have just posted an incoming thread in the General Discussion forum relating to a birth year 1680 I have just picked up.

I was advised to post here so you guys could see it. I am hoping this is because the person who suggested it thought you would enjoy seeing the pics and not that there might be something wrong with the watch and you guys would be able to identify it.

The watch was bought with full papers punched with the serial number. There was also a invoice from Rolex to the jewellers I bought it from for a full service they carried out on the watch last June. I have checked the serial number on the case and it matches the papers and also the one noted on the invoice from Rolex.

I know the bezel insert has been swapped but if you notice anything else out of the ordinary please let me know.

Thanks
