Rolex 1603 Quickset Two Tone

Hello,

I know, right? How is it possible? Is it? I've got 1603 number on my case and it has quickset movement. Has anyone ever spot watch like this or it had case or movement replaced?

Did Two Tone bracelet 455 and gold fluted bazel came with 1603?

greets

s.

Ok, I thought so. Case has been replaced. Is it big loss of value? I could buy 16013 case for it to match whole watch. Current one is in almost mint condition so I wonder is it worth it. I am about to send my jubilee to Michael Young because it has some normal overstretch. Do You think it's worth it or maybe I should get rid of it instead of putting money in it.

It looks like this, what is the value of it with this swap case?

I bought it from my friend who just got bored of this watch, it had full service made, local shop who made it said that movement is in great condition.

Just wear it. Don’t invest more in it.

Enjoy the fact that it won't take forever to set the date after a long time of not wearing.

Doesn't matter where a true 1603 stops at the most it is only 15 days off.
