·I would suggest researching the president diamond dials and lug styles to make sure this isn't added on later. One thing to watch out for on older white gold presidents is replacement yellow bracelets plated with white gold. That sort of thing was big in the Philippines and HK. You also need to love diamond festooned watches because they can be limited in demand.

·My spidey sense screams HK on the diamond treatments but if that price tag is right I would snap that thing up asap. You can make a couple grand on it if you get tired of it.

·It's an older non quick model with stepped dial but looks like the bracelet is reasonably tight. Grab it at $7500. .

·Haha thanks Fred. I’ll post some pics of the other watches she’s got if anyone wants to see them. Dibs on the turn o graph already but everything else I’m going to help her sell and get the word out to the right people. She is also going to go to eBay with some of them so if you want keep a eye out there.

These days it's pretty easy to research prices online, and she probably knows the value of these Rolex models, especially if her husband had a large collection. So if the prices seem too good to be true, I would be very careful. You are looking at watches from the collection of someone who didn't mind aftermarket parts.

·Well I finally got the watch about a hour ago. She didn’t bring any watches with her this time but she’s sending photos to me of what she has left. A very lucky basterd came and swooped in an got the turn o graph. One of the watches I know off the top of my head is a Rolex oyster perpetual all solid 14kt gold case and bracelet from 1951 cal. 645 ref. 6085

·The ones to get are the GMT and the Oysterquartz Datejust, the rest looks like headache to me. Aftermarket parts, unwanted brands, hard to move on pieces.

·Looks like the GMT and a few of the other Rolexes along with their bracelets lost a fight with a buffing wheel. Would have been nice to have gotten ahold of them before they went for the service and polishing. Anyways if the price is tasty they will pop quick.
