need info on my royal oak No.248
does anyone have any info about my stainless and gold royal oak. I bought it new after dental school in 1982 but I believe its a very early one being number 248. The AP is above the 6 hour. Its very thin for a royal oak, with a large face.
Regardless I love this watch, but are they as collectible and valuable as vintage rolex's?
Thanks Al

Unusual
New in 1982. Gold and stainless steel. AP logo at 6 o'clock position. Those three items seem incongruous. Maybe you could post a photo of the front and back of the watch..........? Regards, MTF
agreed unusual but not impossible. Agreed a pic would be helpful.
Most likely a tu tone jumbo; there were still some 6 oclock dials used in very early 1980's. TM
