The classic Connoisseur of Time Certified Pre-Owned Rolex showcased in today's offering is a beautifully presenting example of this phenomenon. It features timeless vintage styling and a well-executed handwound movement.
It measures 34mm without the crown - the size of a Rolex Date model from the era.
Powering the watch is its Rolex caliber 1225 handwound movement shock protected in two places.
It has all of its original Rolex parts and has just finished a true expertly done restoration.
Its case presents as scratch-free with fairly light to moderate signs of previous polishing to the case. Despite what the photos seem to suggest, it still clearly retains its original lightly stamped serial number on the back. On the wrist, it presents beautifully.
Its understated silver dial has been meticulously restored - 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. It is running exceptionally accurately, keeping time on par with a new Rolex in our testing 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 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. One used to be the watchmaker for an authorized Rolex dealership and was given special training by Rolex at their Beverly Hills Service Center.
Don't miss the opportunity to own the perfect complement to your sporty Datejust, Sub, GMT, or Daytona.
