Antiques Roadshow can always be counted on for quirky stories and jaw-dropping finds, but one recent episode set in Roundhay Park, Leeds, offered an especially memorable moment for watch-heads (formally known as horologists, we’ve been reliably informed…).
Rare Rolex Makes Racks
Host Fiona Bruce and her team spent much of the hour-long episode sifting through treasures as varied as a gold handbag from a mystery benefactor and a remarkable album of Antarctic photos.
However, it was vintage perfect UK Rolex replica watches that truly stole the show… and ruffled a few feathers along the way.
Richard Price, the show’s Rolex aficionado, was delighted to examine the guest’s Swiss made “Double Red” Rolex Sea-Dweller fake watches (reference 1665).
As Price explained, this 1970s original marked the first of the high quality replica Rolex Sea-Dweller watches to feature the iconic red text, earning it the “holy grail” status among committed collectors.
The guest revealed how his brother — who had been drilling water wells in Dubai — had gifted the luxury copy Rolex watches to him years ago, handing it over to save the guest the hassle of buying a new one.
For over four decades, the guest wore the best Rolex Sea-Dweller replica watches UK almost every day but somehow managed to keep it in immaculate condition, even if the original strap eventually broke.
When it was serviced, he cannily kept the old strap safely tucked away, preserving every link and, with them, every authentic piece of 1:1 online super clone Rolex watches history.
