Millionares Vintage President Rolex EXTREMLY RARE!

I've never seen anything like this before. It's not for real is it?

Bastid made my PC freeze.

My spell checker had a nervous breakdown.

Nice Rolex though. Well worth the current £565 bid price.

I'm glad that Rolex has learned the proper expression of the roman numerals since that watch was made. I II III IIII V?

I hope this is a joke. Yes? Please say yes. Rolex name didn't start getting used until 1908.

Someone sure put a lot of time in the Rolex crown bridge piece. Real or not that is about the only decent part. Overall a downer.

FYI, Hans Wisdorf registered the trademark name Rolex in 1908 and established the Rolex Watch Company in 1915. Prior to that he sold under the brand name Wilsdorf & Davis.

There's no such thing as a pre-1905 Rolex watch.

i will bag to differ, TODAY i did see a PRE 1905 rolex. that watch just could of been the missing link from the conception to the official brand labeling! that watch may of been the inspiration of the founder to change names, because he could see what he was hearing! can anyone hear deny what we saw today is a truly rare watch. so you see there is a PRE (before) ROLEX. have fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
