Rolex

Thanks Joe...

 

would love to tell you that it was issued to me in 1967, but alas not so lucky. I acquired it earlier this year (thin case 1.7mill), but it took about a year to find. Have been overwhelmed by the beauty of the dial, images really don't do the tropical MK2's justice - but I don't have to tell you that smile. How about your beauty?

Looking forward to being a part of this community.

Easy....

The Mk2s do have a great deal of charm...for sure....
