Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:926961 |
The name Rolex has been synonymous with the finest hand made Swiss watches since the early 1900s. Often distinguished by their "Oyster" waterproof case and "Perpetual" automatic movement, Rolex timepieces are nearly indestructible, and resistant to shock, heat, water, and dust. They have been worn by men of action from the summit of Mt. Everest to the deepest ocean trench to the cockpit of high performance warplanes. Vintage Rolex sports models remain of great interest to collector...s and enthusiasts alike, leading Martin Skeet and Nick Urul to write an authoritative reference book on the subject in 2001, revised and expanded into a 3rd edition in 2008.
