Description

Very rare, Rolex 9ct Half or Demi-Hunter pocket watch in really superb condition with stunning Rolex signed, double-sunk porcealin dial. A really special piece. All original and appears to be complete with original box too!

Case

Hinged back case is signed A.L.D. (Dennison) and hallmarked for Birmingham with the date letter 'C' denoting 1927 year of manufacture. Case is in beautiful condition with only the very lightest of marks and still snaps shut nice and tightly. There is no play in the case hinges at all and the inside bears the serial number '384199' along with a touching inscription "Presented to Tim Phillips. As a token of esteem by the 'Pals' 192" - much more unique and engaging than the usual 'Service award' engravings we are used to seeing.

Total weight is 95 grams.

Dial & Crystal

Brilliant white, double sunk, sub seconds dial is signed Rolex with bold black arabic numerals and retains its originals blued steel, double-bulbed hands. There are no chips, hairlines, discolourations, etc. on the dial; it is perfect. The acrylic crystal is totally free from scratches or chips and is like new.

Movement

Very nicely finished, 17 jewel, fully Rolex signed movement is also in mint condition with no signs of water damage or corrosion. Running perfectly having just been serviced and is keeping excellent time.
