26mm Rolex Oyster Perpetual DATE in stainless steel and white metal, model 6917(4) on Jubilee 62510 bracelet. Its original “DATE” dial has been replaced at some point by a genuine (but incorrect for this watch) black / baton DATEJUST SCOC dial that was intended for a later model. This circa 1980 model correctly bears a Rolex 2035 calibre movement and as such does not have the “quick-set” feature, which would allow easier correction of the date at the end of a short month. Unusually, it has been fitted with a synthetic sapphire glass that is not by Rolex, to update the older and more easily marked acrylic glass. We don't as a rule approve of such work, but this appears to have been very well executed, it modernises the watch and tests well for water-resistance. It comes with a Rolex box (the cushion inside is a generic replacement), original vintage YOUR ROLEX OYSTER booklet, our own warranty card and a certificate from the ALR Watch Register confirming that we checked it with them. The NEW equivalent is now £6,400!
Price: £2,699
