You've seen plenty of 1680 Rolex (so no pic req) I do already have one of these myself but this is a bit special..........my birth year Grail  :notworthy: amazing how much these are worth now !

So let's see what makes you 'tick' ..............

well, as far as birth-year watches go: In 1981 the only 4-digit-reference rolexes readily available (as no one wanted the friggin' things) was the 1655. There are also ref. 5513 dated to 1981, but I'd want a COSC (hence "superlative chronometer") certified watch so I'd rather go with a transition-model 16800 or a GMT transition-model 16750...

 

Grail... hmmmmm, in terms of affordability, something like a platin A.Lange or Patek... unless I win the lottery (and even then I'd have to hit it pretty friggin' big :D )

The details on these are out of this world....
