Magnifique!
Thanks Philipp ,
We are lucky you often do post like that!
It's always a pleasure to read you.

First of all, Bosco, welcome here!
What's not to love your Vintage Rolex? It is dressy, in a super condition, with a lot of charm. What more do you want? I have to confess that I didn't know this model, but it is always interesting to see Rolex Which are different from the Professional Lin...
Welcome here Bosco,
Yep, a very watch. The case seems to be good, not over polished... I love the black/red/black/red quantiem; hands and indexs are so quaint! And for finish I love the "light Tuxedo" dial. Enjoy your new vintage Rolex! quentin
