When I first saw this watch, I thought, “a hot August 1963 Saturday, on the beach,” imagining wearing it then. Once again, I was rocked by an uncompromising desire. Sigh.
Anyway, it turned out to be in lovely condition, with a correct bracelet in similar condition.
1 - I love finding watches that the original owners didn’t care for.
2 - After spending months studying for-sale 60’s Rolex tool watches, looking at contemporaneous Oyster Perpetuals for sale is a treat. While the tools watches present a minefield of cobbled together garbage, with nary a worthy buy, some of the OPs are real catches.
