Description

Rolex 9ct octagonal Oyster in very fine condition, beautiful and original white porcelain dial and fitted with new black leather strap with complementing gold-filled buckle. Very rare piece.

Case

9ct yellow gold case in very fine, original condition with no signs of repair to fixed lugs. both front bezel and rear cover screw down correctly and tightly. Winding crown is a later replacement but 'in keeping' with the watch and almost identical to the original item. Both crown and tube are excellent with good threads on both case and crown itself. This is a full size version of this design and not a mid or boys-size.

Case dimensions are 32mm in diameter (not including crown), 10mm thick and 38.5mm lug to lug.

Dial & Crystal

The dial is completely original, white porcelain and in beautiful condition. It is a very rare centre-seconds dial (the vast majority from this period are sub-seconds). The dial itself is stunning with red five minute markers around the outer edge and bold, art-deco numbers. Dial is singed 'Rolex Oyster' with 'Swiss Made' at 6 o'clock. Breguet style, blued steel hands with a red centre-seconds hand complete the watch. There is a very slight hairline down around the 7 o'clock/35 minute marker. I've managed to pick it out in the 6th image but it is very difficult to notice unless specifically looking for it with a loupe/magnifier. There are no other marks or chips on the dial.

The crystal is a standard Plexiglas/acrylic type and is brand new.

Bracelet/Strap

We have fitted a nice black leather strap to the watch with complementing gold-filled buckle. This watch has 'fixed lugs' and as such, would require an open-ended strap.

Movement

High quality 15 jewel, manual winding 'Prima' movement in very fine condition and keeping excellent (almost Chronometer) time. Full 12 months warranty.
