Was down the Beach and Found a Huge rock with something Shinny in it i threw it to my friend and told him he could have it, well about a hour after we got home he called me and said he got the Rock off and it says Rolex 18K 750 on it, so i rushed over his house to take a look and it was a ROLEX Face, the pic is just of the back of the watch havent gotten it all apart yet. i took it back from him and Tomorrow we are taking it to one of his friends houses that buys gold and we are splitting the MONEY. also found a weird A thing with 2 stars on it. And heres the 3 Dimes ive got the last few weeks the Merc and the Barber were already posted on here just figured id take the pic with all three.

It was just the Face..... Looked it up on Ebay its a 29K watch GOD i wish i had the Band....... Would get atleast 8 to 10K for melt probably..... its all broken down now and it weighs 28 Grams so $1061 Melt......considering its 18K
 
good score!!!! MR TUFF
 
Looks like a real one to me. You can tell the movement was stainless. The fakes usually are not. Keep us posted. Great Find.
 
Tony sorry the watch is fubar but at over 1000 beans that makes it a bit better. Nice haul of gold :icon_thumleft:
 
Where are the insitu pics?
 
Glad you were able to find a nice spot yesterday! Nice find for sure!

Yea thanks alot Neil.... Beach was ok but on my way home We couldnt find anywhere to go. I was going Nuts
 
Congrats on a nice score. :headbang:
 
A truly great find. I found reference to a Rolex with serial number 8570f and number 8828, but yours bears the number 88278: darn close, but Google produces no hits. The 8828 watch I did come across (http://jewelry-shops.us/jewel/rolex-18k/) is loosely valued at $10k.
 
Took it back from him eh? Haha, at least he's sharing it! :headbang:
