Today's offering showcases this gorgeous and uncommon Connoisseur of Time Certified Pre-Owned example of one of the company's distinctive and fine late Art Deco ladies dress watches.
Complete with its 14K rose gold case that features distinctive lugs and a complementary salmon dial (face), it has elegance and timeless class. It's original blued steel hands, which retain a pleasing blue color, beautiful complement the dial.
Powering this gem is a fine, early Rolex timekeeping mechanism. Featuring Rolex's patented Super Balance system as well as possessing a tonneau shape for longer running reserve and more accurate timekeeping, it employed Rolex's premier movement technology for the era.
While many of the company's similar ladies dress watches from the era were very nice, this example is a little unusual in the beauty of its case design, and it also has a very quality movement originally adjusted to two positions. It is also earlier than most similar watches which were made in the mid-1940's.
It is all original down to even the original winding crown.
Its case is in excellent condition with fairly light signs of previous polishing. It still strongly retains the serial number on the back. Its untouched original dial is in honest condition with fairly light aging.
One of our Master Watchmakers, who used to be the watchmaker for an authorized Rolex dealer and was given training by Rolex at their Beverly Hills Service Center to be an authorized Rolex watchmaker, fairly recently fully serviced the watch which consists of fully disassembling the movement, carefully inspecting each part, installing a new mainspring, reassembling and lubricating the movement, and timing testing and regulation (a $695 value).
For the finishing touch, we have meticulously detailed it making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Accompanying it is a vintage black leather strap vintage that has been worn but is very serviceable. If you would like a brand new black cord band installed, please inquire.
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. international warranty on the movement and its function, and a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity.
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. As mentioned, one used to be the watchmaker for an authorized Rolex dealership and was given training by Rolex at their Beverly Hills Service Center.
