Case & Bracelet

Excellent case that has previously been polished. The blue and red "Pepsi" bakelite bezel insert is original to the watch and still glows when exposed to UV. The bezel shows some patina from age. The caseback is stamped: 6542 I. 56. Very Good U.S. Jubilee bracelet with 20 links and 50 end links. The bracelet has average stretch for its age.

Dial

Very good gilt chapter ring dial with some speckling patina present on the black surface of the dial. The lume plots have aged to a warm sandy hue and glow very lightly when exposed to UV. The hands have aged to a light sage hue and still glow brightly when exposed to UV.

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.

    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.
