Got this in an estate

[Stewy014]

Got this as part of my grandfathers estate a few months back. Probably a rep but looking for
some insight from the pros on here.

Thanks. Maybe hit the holy grail but unlikely!!

Watch in the pics is genuine.

Really? Goodness. What is the give away? I’ve been researching for a day or so and couldn’t tell.

Thought the rotor making a slight winding noise was dead give away as a rep but I read some AP rotors are noisy.

There’s no giveaway as this is a gen. It’s a gen and let me repeat it, it’s a gen.
Everything is just right, simple.

Awesome. Now do I keep or sell.

Never been a fan fan of the AP’s

Since you got it for free, I can make you a generous offer which you will take. :hehehe:

on the other hand, you could also keep it as it’s a rememberance piece with potentially high emotional value.

He was a good dude. I could never sell. I knew he had a rep presidential, or at least I thought it was. Better go looking around he house for it now!!!

My Dad gave me a Rolex Oyster his parents purchased for him in the 60s in Switzerland. I wear it all the time and will never sell it. There is something very cool about family watches. I’d keep it. Pass it on to your son.

My father gave me an old Omega De ville and a rolex (don't remember the model, I knew nothing about watches then and thought Casio was a luxury brand) when I was young. I lost both and was beaten hard.

I did not get beaten for losing the De Ville since I lost it on the bus back home from my high school entrance examination, where I got a very high score. Good old times.

Haha. Normally, when I read “i got this watch in an estate” it’s an eBay scam sale.

 

[Hyjynx]

Yeah right. Put the picture(s) back or I’m calling BS.

 

[AirB]

Still waiting for the pictures.

 

[BirkinTourbillon]

Yeah, I missed this and would love to see the picture of it though. We’re waiting for it man.
