Hmmmm? What could it be? One things for sure if I buy it, it's gotta be old, this case older than me.

Is it one of these?  From - watchestobuy.com/  Nah I bet it's an Oyster watch, something with the old style bracelet? Tough to tell but you seem excited which is awesome! |

A vintage Rolex is all I can say with any kind of certainty.  Sent from my G2 using Proboards |

He did say it was older than him - could it be DIRT???   Okay, seriously, I'm sticking with vintage Tudor Sub. |

Mmmmm, Vintage Tudor...  If it is, that would be so cool. Tudor is still a great brand today but in my opinion nothing like it was back in the day! |

Yup, vintage Tudor Sub! Ahhhhhhh I'm stoked. It was an Ebay find I hate to admit. You've got to dig deep and this one's a real diamond in the rough which is why I'm a bit embarrassed to put up any pics. It needs a bit of TLC.,

Cool, so it is a Tudor after all! eBay can be a great place to find things sometimes, just a different place for people to increase the odds of finding a buyer. Regardless to if the watch was run over by a truck what matters most is you had fun picking it out and will enjoy it for how ever long you keep it! My guess is it won't be too long but that's all part of the fun!  |

A scavenger hunt can be fun too! Thankfully for Rolex, Tudor and stuff like that it's actually possible. Had it been a Vintage Vacheron Constantin or Ulysse Nardin then you might just be screwed I'm certain you will locate those parts sooner or later |

Yes, it's fun, I have found some but they are ridiculously expensive, don't laugh, but I'm looking for a complete bezel set complete with fat font insert, man, it's gonna cost me!
