Today's offering showcases this very elegant mens hand wound Rolex dress watch. It is large for the era and for the style, measuring 35mm in diameter without the crown - one millimeter smaller than a Datejust.

Besides being uncommon, its large size fits in well with today's size watches.

The dial is a very well-done restoration. The case still has its lightly visible original Rolex Coronet markings and serial number

Our watchmaker has just freshly serviced the very fine Precision movement with patented Super Balance system. To complete the watch we have installed a brand new Hadley-Roma crocodile strap.

When viewed in person it presents nicer than the photos suggest. Photos of the inside available upon request. The Precision movement is quite clean and running very true.

Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity and a new timing certificate attesting to it performance.

Don't miss the opportunity to own a perfect complement to your sporty Datejust, Submariner, or Daytona.
