Case & Bracelet

Excellent case that has previously been polished and shows some wear from use. The case has been "Sleeve polished" and the matte portions of the case appear shiny. The black bezel insert has faded to a medium grey and is in excellent condition showing light wear from use. Excellent USA oval link jubilee bracelet with 19 links and matching end links.

Dial

Very good gilt dial with a post-tropical patina. The hands have aged a warm creamy hue and glow brightly when exposed to UV then fall off rapidly at the same rate. The hands are newer tritium service units and have aged an orangy hue. The hands no longer glow when exposed to UV. The watch was sourced from the family of the original owner who is in the photo wearing the watch.

Accessories

None The watch is running at COSC spec.

    I came across their site after seeing a Paul Newman Daytona on Uncrate. I’ve been looking ever since and I must say their prices are very very good.

    Once I found what I was looking for, I emailed them and Scott was very prompt to respond. Payment and shipping was seamless.

    Buying vintage is all about buying the seller. In this case, HQ Milton is the best in the game when it comes to Rolex.

    Amazing customer service. Straight shooters. Watch was perfectly described. Thanks guys! Couldn’t be any happier.

  • Robert E. Wilmington, NC

    Overall, this was a truly fantastic experience buying a vintage watch. I was very happy with the advice and and my purchase in the end. HQ Milton has earned their reputation and my experience lived up to expectations.

    Before I purchased the watch of interest I scoured the Internet and could not find a comparable price for what I purchased. I’ll be back.
