Rolex 5508

Rolex center called me and told me that they could not service my vintage 1958 5508 as they no longer carry spare parts. How sad! Luckily, the watch is in very good condition.. : )

This 5508 has often been loosely called James Bond as Sean Connery was sen wearing the Rolex sub during the early years.

Vintage Rolex porcelain dial

This is a vintage 1910s silver case Rolex trench watch. The porcelain dial has managed to keep the dial looking fresh and new. The disadvantage of course is the fear of cracking dial owing to strong impact.
