Beautiful mate. What strap is it wearing?

Beautiful thin, really is and an awesome write up with nice links! I was slightly confused by the first paragraph though. You said you couldn't afford gen or Franken but then destiny struck? What do you mean? Was it a rep for sale? Lovely modifications.

Agree with the experienced chaps above. What a stunning watch with so much history.

I could never own a gold Rolex in all fairness but my god that is a beautiful time piece.

Any really good offers going around for a cheap daily for work men? I may end up just buying a Seiko of some kind but there are some pretty looking quartz watches out there. May pick something up in the trading section perhaps. Anyone get a bargain for a daily?

Something I had the pleasure of wearing recently.... This purchased by my boss a while back. Beautiful watch... And a pretty old piece. Not sure on value...

Welcome chap! Another Newbie friend! The DSSD always looks so crisp! Good luck finding the correct one for you!

What probably fascinates me most is some of the users, experienced ones have commented quite strongly in both camps. Amazing to split even the best eyes. Very hard to tell as slightly different lighting left to right also, not that I would be able to anyway. My simple eye tells me the gen is on the left. Few little things but in the exact same light etc I would probably change again. Will the OP confirm? [emoji23]

Thanks again guys!

@Nanuq was the man I found coincidentally! Thanks gentlemen he sorted me out! Lost my little green rep points right enough!

Thanks, you guys have a really good forum and keeping the knowledge here is always good, I frequent a few froums as most do and always good to keep good members around. I look forward to discovering more! I have however realised I have made 2 accounts as I use Tapatalk sometimes... who would be the best person to email/message about this as my old email is attached to this one! Doh! May have to start again with the other account!

Hi chaps. First up wanted to say thanks to all the members for the vast wealth of knowledge on here. I like to do a lot of research and reading before getting involved in anything and it has been most fruitful on here! Order a nice sub and lovely black rubber strap for swapping out with from PC who were also an utter pleasure to deal and so quick in communication. Highly recommend. Look forward to posting more and learning as I go along... Hopefully add more to the collection also. Will post some pics in a thread once the watch arrives etc and hopefully help some other newcomers. Thanks.

Surely Rolex would have any history required for this watch?

Stunning work chap.
