1950's Rolex Precision Vintage Mens Midsize Dress Watch - 9K Gold

Rolex

Item No. 9656

In the 1930's through the 50's, in the midst of their high output of utilitarian Oyser sports watches, Rolex also made much more elegant dress watches. These fine wristwatches often combine a superior hand-wound mechanism with beautiful aesthetics.

The elegant and uncommon dress Rolex Precision showcased in today's offering is a prime Connoisseur of Time Certified Pre-Owned example of this phenomenon. It features classicly elegant styling and a well-executed handwound movement.

As a mens midsize, it's well-suited for someone who does not have large wrists.

Made for the English market by Dennison, Rolex's English contract case maker, the case features lugs that have a lovely side facet. The light silver dial with Arabic numerals has a timeless vintage style.

But what is most striking about the watch is its incredible restored condition.

It is fully Rolex down to the signed crown. It has just finished a true expertly done restoration - it presents in gorgeous condition.

Its case presents as mint with fairly light signs of previous polishing. The back presents as gorgeous mint.

Its dial has been meticulously refinished - the printing could pass as Rolex factory done to the naked eye.

As part of the restoration its movement has just been overhauled by a Master Watchmaker (a $695 value). It continues to run very strong and true, keeping time on par with a brand new Rolex in our testing recording position.

For the finishing touch it has been equipped with a brand new leather strap and aftermarket Rolex style buckle making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

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

Don't miss the opportunity to own the perfect midsized complement to your sporty Datejust, Sub, GMT, or Daytona.

Your watch is important to us, and we will take care of it for its lifetime. We provide the best after sale care in the business with an extremely experienced team of four Master Watchmakers all of whom each have over thirty-five years of experience and a large number of parts. One used to be the watchmaker for an authorized Rolex dealership and was given special training by Rolex at their Beverly Hills Service Center.
