A real beauty B!

Is this one in the stable?

[Demsey]

Wow! That is sharp!

That's probably the sportiest Rolex dress watch I've ever seen. I can't believe the run was so short. Think of the dial/bracelet combos they might have come up with.....................

Do you own this one JJ?!

[Toadtorrent]

Very different piece...classy!

[JoJo35]

Thanks guys I couldn't pass this one up after I saw how clean it was

Found one this morning

I cannot afford that kind of rarity though

I like it. Very classy.

I'm not too keen on the 'shoulders/lugs' of the case, as it's the same style as the VCO and Ingenieur, which I felt was quite a 'harsh' case-style. However, I absolutely love the dial, and the markings being on the rehaut is an awesome touch, which makes the dial appear larger, so I suspect this could have the same kind of wrist presence as a Sub, simply because of the apparent dial size A fine piece for any collection, congratulations on the acquisition

I usually don't like "CG-less" watches but the dial on this one makes me not even notice the lack of! It looks great!

I "see" a milling project in the future! ;-)

JoJO, could you pop up some details of the lugs (front/back/side), lug holes, back, etc.? I feel a hair-brained scheme coming on...

What happened to the pix?

[gioarmani]

gio, it had pix originally and now they're all gone! I have decided I will build one of these, or as close to it as I can...

I guess this was about Rolex Oysterquartz.

Well here's a good site which is all about this model:

By-Tor, I think the case was similar to these quartz pics but it didn't say quartz on it anywhere and the minute markings were on a bezel insert or rehaut...
