Rolex Tudor.

Just picked up this ladies Tudor from 1960 complete with original
bright orange box with acrylic lid, just a quick scan.Have seen boxes like this one sell for over £75 on Ebay they are now very rare.

Yes but some good things are orange,interesting box see how times have
changed, if you flip the cup on top,you can use it as a ash tray.Take it
out you have a cigarette box,or box to store your paper clips or even your
nuts.

I notice they even give you instructions in the box on how to use the top as an ashtray or cigarette holder. Ah, those were the good ol' days, when smoking did't hurt us.

Yes Ed never seen one like it before,according to the chap I got it off. He
bought it from a guy in Germany who was selling his collection.When he got
the watch it was as new, sticker on back all the tags etc,and looked like it had never been worn.

Andie wears a Tudor Princess Oysterdate with factory diamond dial. The thing is great and keeps good time. Not that she cares, she thinks it looks pretty and I have to make sure it stays wound.

Hey Daren, that is a very pretty watch. In all seriousness, is that 18 K gold and are those real diamonds?

JJ I think all the stress of parting with that beautiful its a keeper Omega
Planet Ocean watch.Has affected your eye sight,nowhere in my posts have
I said that the Tudor cost me £75.I said that I have seen the watch boxessell on Ebay for over £75.You might be suffering from withdrawal planet
ocean syndrome, this is very serious condition the only known cure.Is to
be locked in room with 1000 orange planet ocean pictures,or buy a new one
immediately.And to answer your gold diamond question yes but maybe 14kt
or 18kt gold,the only difference is the movement,all the rest is Rolex.

The bezel is YG and the diamonds are real. I had it checked out at RSC Dallas for a service and they said it was all correct.
