Rolex vintage watches

Recommended Posts

Slim

Fair enough! I like the flat crystals on more recent Rolexes but I do think domed crystals look the part on an older watch.

Everyone likes the vintage Rolexes,

 

but why the hack isn't there a good rep of the 14060.

 

It's vintage....early 90's and a great looking watch.

Really bums me out :Whistle:

 

Great watches you guys have :Whistle:

My vintage Gmt that Rolexaddict serviced, water-proofed it and he also took the doomed crystal off and replaced it with an flat genuine one and this is my alltime favourite for sure.

 

Just curious: why did you want a flat crystal on a vintage-looking GMT?

 

they make both for vintage Rollies. I couldn't tell you the different Tropic numbers without looking them up, but both are acceptable. I kind of like the flat better myself.

Slim - great iconic avatar - legend!

 

Thats because these older GMTs came with this tye of crystal....some of the dealer reps have domes,but the gens had cyclops - mainly 118 and 116's.

Not certain how good this one is but this dealer has a few not date subs. I believe he is a trusted dealer on another site.

Really? I had no idea there was ever a flat Rolex acrylic crystal. Mine (gen 16750) is slightly domed. I'd thought that flat crystals only came in with the sapphire.
