Got me a old Rolex 1675 yesterday.

This watch is probably the best and funniest purchase I ever made.
I bought it from a old man i know has owned it since it was new.
He is a client of my job, and I saw the watch on his arm the first time 7 years ago, and even then I asked if it was for sale, but it was not there then.
Yesterday was the same man out to me and asked if I was still interested in buying it and I was

We made the deal and when i come home i take the bracelet off and take the rest of the watch apart just to clean it from all the dirt that was everywhere.
And now for the best part in this history,when i look inside the backcase i saw that the watch is made the first quarter of 1963 and that is exactly when i was born!!
In Februari 1963!

So it was double happiness

He als told me that maybe maybe he got the box and papers somewhwere at home,we have to wait and see.

The watch has a gilt dial and double swiss mark on the dial and that is cool to.

Ok,enough talking,here is a couple of pics on the watch.
