Restoration of a Burnt Rolex Datejust - Gold Rolex After House Fire

Рет қаралды 1,316,107

7 ай бұрын

This Rolex was burned in a house fire in 2010. It is a Rolex 16013 with a fluted gold bezel.
The case is covered in deep scratches, the glass is burnt but the movement is still running, well more or less at least.
I hope you liked this restoration, if so, like, comment and subscribe ;)

I watch them because I find them oddly fascination, just like watch Bob Ross. But I'd be lying if I said I didn't nod off many times.

Es wäre interessant gewesen, wie das alte Zifferblatt ausgesehen hätte, wenn man es noch benutzen hätte können. 4. Die neuen Ölpipetten sind ja mal geil. 5. Du wirst wirklich immer noch nicht von Elma gesponsert? 😂
