I missed the train, some 10 years ago...
As for the M.N, any news about this dial, Tyler?
I'm reallly curious to read what you found.
Best,
Nicolas.

The Rolex Prince- a personal journey

The Prince, one of Rolexes iconic pieces dates from the early 1930’s.It was always a piece I lusted after when I started collecting vintage watches. I saw these beautiful rectangular pieces in the catalogues and thought that one day I would have one in my...

Thanks a lot for posting something very different from what we're used to see, here, in the Rolex Forum. These are stunning and beautiful watches. I had the priviledge to see one in the flesh, yesterday, in superb condition: The 2d from the right. I staye...

A new thema, my friend? Best Tyler

I have to rationalize my collection, a bit... But I would love to get at least one. Best, Nicolas.
Wow! I just check the price ...

My god! The good ones are almost the same as a DRSD. Some cost more! A M.N. is almost a bargain compare to these bancard. I'll stick with my double crown Best Tyler

If only- bought my first BB at the height of the craze
By: watch-guy.com : April 18th, 2011-07:23
nearly 20 yrs ago might be able to sell it for a similar amount today! Princes have been collected along the way but fortunately spread over 15 years, however I have learnt that for a decent ( read all original Prince) the prices are still quite high. Tha...

Super post

I have always found the Prince to be charming (so to speak) and I give Rolex kudos for continuing to produce it, along with the Milgauss, despite the mainstream popularity of other models. Your educational post and focussed collection on the Prince has re...
