Another Fat Font

[dbane883]

For me, an insert is what gives a vintage Rolex its character.  its amazing how the fade/wear of an insert can change the look of a watch.   For the past year or so, I've been using a "ghost" kissing 40 (some call this a MKI but it really should be called a MKII kissing 40..but that is a debate for another day).  The 40 is just kissing and it has a beautiful even fade.. very rare in this condition.  But last week, I was offered a private sale of a special fat font that I debated in acquiring.  Not only is it a kissing 40, but its also a kissing 50!.  I have never seen one this fat, so i decided to make the offer, which was accepted.  Here it is (on the right):

As you can see.. extremely fat and the 50 is ridiculous:

So paired with the "kissing 50" long 5 on my big crown, these are possibly the fattest of both kinds of inserts I have ever seen anywhere.

Amazing!! You now have both fat font kissing 40 and 50's that's incredible.

Thx cc, but your mint no-hash mark, round font insert on your 6538 wins all

I don't get it... I thought everything was supposed to be thin? 

That's what my TV tells me.

I'm not usually one for vintage Rolex, but that Sir is something special.

Two numbers Kissing, the rest are heavily breathing on each other while staring lustfully in their partners' eyes.
