Guaranteed to be as described and satisfaction guaranteed, this is a very nice Rolex watch. 1916 Rolex sterling silver "officers trench watch" with its original wire lugs and a beautiful dial with no cracks, hairlines, or chips. It comes unpolished and on a vintage leather strap.
VINTAGE ROLEXES ONLY GO ONE WAY IN PRICE, UP. It has been appreciating in value for MOST OF A CENTURY and will only continue. This watch will come with our sales receipt with model number, serial number, and authenticity noted. It will also come our Certificate of Authenticity (COA).
Last week the manual winding Rolex signed 15 ruby jewel movement with sub seconds hand was fully serviced, it is running perfectly and keeping excellent time. The watch case could be polished and band replaced to leave the watch looking brand new, but this one just looks right as it is. The case measures 33 mm wide excluding the crown (it's an average sized mens watch for the time period, it is a small-ish watch by today's standards).
The winding crown is probably it's original onion style silver crown. The edges on the case back show only the most minor tool use. The band is a vintage unsigned leather strap which is pretty supple for its age.
It has a modern steel buckle. The dial has never been refinished, it has lost all of its luminous. It is perfect in every way. The crystal is new and the hands have been recently relumed.
The pictures have been taken from every angle and represent the watch well, in fact they are 3x magnified, the dial is beautiful, and the watch is polished to a perfect shine. Any imperfections you see in the shine are just reflections the camera caught. This is a beautiful example of this model. EVERY MAJOR PART ON THIS WATCH IS GENUINE ROLEX EXCEPT FOR THE LEATHER BAND. All of our watches come with a 30 day satisfaction and mechanical guarantee, our Certificate Of Authenticity, and our sales receipt.
If any major component of the watch is not genuine Rolex (the movement, case, case back, bezel ring, winding crown or bracelet) it is clearly stated in the item description above. We exclude unsigned individual parts like gaskets, bracelet spring bars, crown tubes, crystals, hands, etc. From authentication as they are not Rolex signed. Rolex will not service or recognize watches with aftermarket parts on them.
