Fowey River Antiques has dated this piece to the 1950s.
This is the Precision model which has a solid 18ct yellow gold case with lovely decorative shoulders.
Everything about this watch is original, the dial, winding crown and hands.
The calibre 1300 manual winding movement is an absolute gem, sparkling clean and in like new condition, this is a movement from the golden age of Swiss watchmaking.
It has the Rolex logo on the winding crown, on the clasp and the back of the case.
As you would expect from Rolex the watch is fully marked on the dial as Rolex, movement and case.
The only thing we have replaced is the silk cord which can be adjusted to fit any wrist size.
Rolex are one of the most exclusive makers in the world and this watch certainly has that understated elegance which resonates class.
The watch case measures 17mm in diameter not including the crown and the length from the end of each should is 29mm.
The original clasp is gold plated as 18ct gold is too soft and this was Rolex's specification.
Overall this watch is in beautiful condition and looks as if it was hardly ever worn, it would certainly make a perfect gift.
The watch has just been fully overhauled, restored and serviced and is guaranteed to be a genuine Rolex in all respects.
This watch has been fully and professionally overhauled, the process is highly detailed and meticulous.
The watch is stripped down to its component parts and each part is examined under a microscope for signs of wear, any worn parts are replaced with genuine manufacturers original parts. every part is then thoroughly cleaned in a 3 stage ultrasonic cleaning process.
The movement is then fully assembled using manufacturer approved oils and lubricants and is carried out in a clean room environment. The watch movement is then checked and adjusted for accurate time keeping. The cases are polished and the watch sealed.
