Couldn't resist to take this picture... Best, Nicolas ...
A beautiful piece..
...That need to be worn and cared for. Like a old Grand Cru.. Best my friend Hans
What did you catch, my friend?
Not too serious, I hope? Come on, we have a Roooooooooaaaring Rendez Vous Place Vendome! Best, my friend. Nicolas
Blue is not related to the watch but to the name of the Rock Band...
You're a true Jocke Killer! Best, Nicolas
Wonderful picture but...
... I think there's 2 different messages in the backgroung: the text but also the "target" with the concentric circles! Do you mean that an Oyster like this 5512 is a wondeful target? Yes, I agree, sometimes, it is possible to imagine lot of things from a...
The Title of this Band, of course!
But also, and you got it...The circular lines on the cover, with the " linear " lines of the Nato strap, which evokes ...James Bond, as well as the watch, a 5508. Well played, Raf! Best, Nicolas
I was lucky on this one, Garry...
Let's say that I was in the good mood... Best, my friend. Nicolas
Wow, end 59 & it looks like this!
This is an amazing piece. I'm hoping to learn more about these vintage Rolexes .... but I know it will take time. Best fernando
The case had been polished, obviously
But not too much, and the dial is really awesome, as fresh as it just comes out the Manufacture, but 50 years after! The bezel is not the correct one, but I will hunt one. So yes, this one is in stunnig condition, and you can imagine my reaction when I fe...
Wow amigo mio!
The level of your pics is increasing every day! And the level of your awesome collection too! I had the pleasure to admire, "taste" and feel this awesome watch some time ago, and I must admit that this watch is simply stunning and awesome. Thanks for shar...
Gracias, amigo.
I found some new setting on my camera, hence I took the opportunity to take some pics of this beauty. A Strong magic piece, indeed. Gracias para tus palabras, Hermano! Best, Nicolas
this is a very good looking Rolex Sub...
Nico, most of time, i see the Sub with date, this one without date looks much stunning. how this without date compared with the one without date, both movements should be different? which one came first to the market? one more question is that this one wi...

There are a lot of things to say... First, this 5508 came. Then, the 5513, then the 1680, then the 16 800 / 16 8000, and then the 14060, and the 16610, this last one will probably be disconrinued, as the rumour says... Among the " without date " you have ...
Could you please....

Smashing photo!
Well, brother, it doesn't get much better than this! Great picture! This Rolex is timeless, classic. I just adore it! Cheers, Daos
Thanks for your nice words, Daos.
I think I have a big love affair, with this 5508. Since 4 months now, it has always been with me, not always on my wrist, but just close to me. Can't get rid of its simple Beauty! Best, Nicolas
