My first Rolex, but haven't checked movement yet.
My brother owed me some money, and through a trade he traded me this 1966 Oyster Perpetual from 1966. This is 14k and stainless steel mid size watch, I'll open this up and check the movement when I receive my case opener. As far as I know, this is real. Due to market conditions, this was the only watch he would trade me!!!
