1960's Rolex Vintage Ladies Handwound Watch - 14K Gold & Diamonds

Rolex

Item No. 9438SH

Centuries of craftsmanship can be found in this beautiful Certified Pre-Owned gold dress watch by Rolex. The exquisite detail of the hand-wrought bracelet complements the elegant and understated gold case and the vintage styled dial.

It is a perfect accent for the most precious of times. Our photos couldn't do it justice. Here are a few of its features:

  • Understated round gold Rolex dress case
  • Beautiful original Rolex handmade tapering gold bracelet. It has it original hand hammered Florentine finish on the center links accented to the sides by small beads of rice style links. We love the distinctive feel of this bracelet. It's unlike the simpler design of many similar Lady Rolex watches from the era.
  • Warm dial with distinctive gold vintage styled markers. Originally silver, it has warmed to a sepia tone giving it a true vintage look
  • Diamond faceted sapphire crystal that is virtually unbreakable protecting the face
  • High grade, original Rolex mechanism originally adjusted to two positions for very precise timekeeping.
  • Protected against shock and vibration in two places for greater durability

Its 14K gold case presents as just short of mint. Its silver dial was restored in vintage times. It is in very clean condition. And its bracelet is in excellent condition with light wear and signs of polishing to the clasp.

One of our Master Watchmakers, who used to be the watchmaker for an authorized Rolex dealer and was given special training by Rolex at their Beverly Hills Service Center to be an authorized Rolex watchmaker, has fully serviced the watch which consists of fully disassembling the movement, carefully inspecting each part, replacing any overly worn components with genuine Rolex parts, installing a new mainspring, reassembling and lubricating the movement, and extensive timing testing and regulation (a $695 value).

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