Description
This 1945 Rolex Oyster chronometer-certified watch is becoming hard to find. The 30x39mm stainless steel Rolex Oyster Viceroy-style case is a smaller size, but appears larger than the boys size due to the shape of the case, which provides decent wrist coverage. I do like the fact that the case has not been polished and maintains its original state. The original Oyster-patented winding crown is still present. The manual winding Rolex movement is quite fine – meeting chronometer standards and adjusted to six positions and was just cleaned by our Rolex-approved watchmaker. The dial was restored many decades ago, and has taken on a graceful patina over time. The blued steel pencil hands are original to the watch. This is a very uncommon Rolex, with a very fine movement.
