As the dial body states, the watch features a very early example of Rolex's shock resistance.
The parts are fully original down to all of the hands and the winding crown.
The Oyster case is in excellent condition. The watch still retains is original Rolex Oyster bubble back style crown. The salmon dial has been previously nicely refinished.
The handwound movement with early shock resistance has just been fully serviced by a Rolex Certified Watchmaker (a $495 value).
Included with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate attesting to its performance.
A classic and scarce early shock-resisting handwound Rolex Oyster comtemporary with the automatic Oyster bubble backs.
