What makes that watch worth so much is that he has every piece of it from the purchase...that's the interesting part and differentiates it from any other of that model Rolex.


Every true watch aficionado keeps every piece of paperwork and box from every watch we buy today. In 1960 that wasn't the case.

That's the beauty. Rolex hasn't changed that watch significantly since 1960. It's timeless. And it was one of the first of that model.

If he had spent that $120 on Disney stock one year later he'd be sitting on $227,261.
