Case & Bracelet

Excellent case that shows light wear from use. The 18K "Thunderbird" bezel is also in excellent condition, is sharp, and shows light wear from use. The serial number is partially obscured from end link wear. Very good 18K D link Jubilee bracelet with 17 links and solid end links. The bracelet has moderate stretch from age. The clasp is not stamped with a date code.

Dial

Very good matte champagne dial with some patina from age present. The lume plots have turned a warm sandy hue and the hands have aged a few shades darker than the dial. All lume glows when exposed to UV and falls off at the same rate.

Accessories

Service papers. 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.
