My first Rolex ...1665! Sat, 10 November 2012 07:48 Go to previous message

Hi all, thought I would post some pics of my recent acquisition, my late serial 1665 great white! Big thanks to a fellow TZ'er who helped me acquire this (thanks Kurt!).

The 1665 really is in excellent condition, hands and dial match perfectly and the condition...I'm still blown away by it... it's stunning.

To be honest, this isn't my first Rolex, I had a 1680 a couple of years ago, but it was more catch and release for me (couldn't quite put my finger on the reason for not liking the 1680, but the 1665 feels very different).

Here are some quick iphone shots on a leather strap (I'll try and get some better shots later) - I really like the look of it, hope you all feel the same.... enjoy!
