1961 Rolex Oyster Precision Classic Vintage Mens Handwound Watch - Stainless Steel

Rolex

Item No. 9035

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. Its original dial has been perfectly custom refinished in a striking dark Tiffany & Co. robin's egg blue.

Today's offering proudly showcases this impressive Certified Pre-Owned mens Rolex Oyster watch in gorgeous condition. It measures 35mm in diameter - in between the size of a Rolex Date and a Datejust.

Powering the watch is its original Rolex Caliber 1200 series handwound movement with shock resistance.

It is fully Rolex down to the winding crown. It has just finished a true expertly done restoration. Our photos couldn't do it justice.

Its case presents as mint. Its dial has been meticulously custom refinished - 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 $595 value). It is keeping time on par with a new Rolex in our testing position.

For the finishing touch it comes equipped with two brand new leather straps and an aftermarket Rolex style buckle making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

We also have two fine quality aftermarket bracelets available for purchase so you can choose which look you prefer or switch between them depending on how you feel. One is done in a Rolex Presidential style and one is done is a Rolex Oyster style. Both have heavy solid link designs and are adjustable and brand new. Please see the sample photos in the listing.

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.

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.
