Item No. 8443

One of the more seldom seen classic vintage Rolex watches is the Oyster Precision as Rolex made most watches of this style with a date.

It features a much thinner profile than the Perpetual models - its understated, elegant and classic design contrast the "busier" look of some of the modern Rolex watches.

Today's offering proudly showcases this impressive Certified Pre-Owned mens Rolex Oyster watch in gorgeous restored condition. It measures 34mm in diameter - the size of a Rolex Date model.

Powering the watch is its Rolex Caliber 1210 handwound movement with shock resistance, which is in clean condition. Photos of the inside available upon request.

It has just finished a true expertly done restoration. Our photos couldn't do it justice.

Its case presents as mint. Its dial, which has been refinished in Tiffany blue and set with aftermarket brilliant diamonds, presents in like new condition - the printing could pass as Rolex factory done to the naked eye.

As part of the restoration it has just been freshly overhauled by a Master Watchmaker (a $495 value). It continues to run keep very accurate time.

For the finishing touch we have equipped it with a brand new calfskin leather strap making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
