In reaction to a thread elsewhere on the MB which appears to question the motives of anyone who would wear a
ROLEX, and to otherwise impugn the brand that many of us love, I uploaded pictures of this one from my collection. It has a caliber 1210 manual wind, 17-jewel movement, and was likely produced for the English market. Hence the 9-karat gold Oyster case, and 10-karat gold back (back made in Switzerland). I have been unable to nail down a hallmark, so I am unable to check the date letter. I assume the watch to be circa 1950. I am wearing this one today, though I rarely wear it as it looks tiny on my big wrist.
