Nanuq Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 I just won an auction for a vintage (66 years old) solid gold Rolex for my wife!!! It's been completely overhauled, the dial is creamy white with raised yellow gold indices, gold hands, and the movement is a champ with (get this) a MICROSTELLA balance. I can't wait for it to get here! What's the occasion? Nuthin' I just sorta like the gal... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eunomians Posted April 8, 2006 Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 Great Bob, I am sure that she's gonna love it. Please post some pics! I while back I bought my gal a vintage steel black-dialed rollie that I can't even peel off of her to take pics of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryyannon Posted April 8, 2006 Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 Good for you, Bob... I'm sure the watch couldn't have found a better home or a more deserving winner Sounds like a solid-gold case of good karma: the proof that what goes round indeed comes around...
