First of all, let me make it clear this is absolutely not a Rolex.. it's quartz and probably has a cheap Japanese mechanism. I bought this on the Mercedes stand at the Goodwood Festival of Speed a few years back and found it in a drawer the other day. If I recall correctly, it cost me around £25 (so £50 in the dealers at least 
)
I've worn it a few times, there are some light marks on the bezel and the strap has some silver paint on it. The battery is flat from its time languishing in the drawer.
However, I'm sure that a few quid spent down at Timpson's for a new battery and strap would bring it back to life. I think it would make an ideal watch for a teenage Mercedes fan, if you have one in your household.
I don't want any money for it. But if anyone would like it, I'd like a pledge that you will donate a fiver to charity (Diabetes UK, for preference, but it's your choice) and I'll post it to you in a Jiffy bag if you PM me your address.
Cheers,
Gaz
