Today's offering proudly showcases this impressive Certified Pre-Owned midsize Rolex Oysterdate Precision in gorgeous restored condition - on the wrist it presents virtually like a new Rolex. Our photos couldn't do justice!

One of the desirable vintage Rolex watches right now is the Oysterdate Precision due to the fact that its understated and classic design contrast the busier look of some of the modern Rolex watches. It's a watch that is perfectly at home being worn everyday or only for special occasions. Produced from the early 1950's into the 1980's, it was a strong commercial success for Rolex, winning a large following.

We love the markers on the dial - they give it so much vintage character, especially the ones at 6 and 9.

It measures 30mm in diameter. As a midsize watch it suits a man looking for a smaller vintage watch or a woman looking for more of a modern size watch.

Powering the watch is its original Rolex Caliber 1215 handwound movement with date and early shock resistance.

It has all of its original Rolex parts and has just finished a true expertly done restoration. It presents in gorgeous condition - on the wrist it presents like new. Our photos couldn't do it justice.

Its case presents as mint. Its Rolex dial has been meticulously restored - its printing could pass as Rolex factory done to the naked eye.

Please inquire if you think you'd prefer the look of having the white removed from the seconds hand.

As part of the restoration a Master Watchmaker has fully serviced the watch which consists of fully disassembling the movement, carefully inspecting each part, replacing any overly worn components, reassembling and lubricating the movement, replacing all of the waterproofing seals with new Rolex gaskets, and extensive timing testing and regulation (a $695 value).

It is running extremely strong and true, keeping time on par with a brand new Rolex in our testing recording position.

For the finishing touch we have equipped it 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 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.

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.
