Sonning Vintage Watches

I love all the watches in our collection but every now and again something super special comes along and this is just such a watch. Made in 1980, The solid 18ct yellow case is in near faultless condition. The original Rolex signed champagne pearlescent dial is immaculate as are the hands and batons. The super high grade Rolex signed chronometer standard automatic movement (& quick date set) is again in near faultless condition and has just been serviced by our professional watchmaker. The watch sits on a new, super high quality, black Hirsch ‘London’ alligator strap with Hirsch gold plated buckle. In terms of provenance we have:

• The original Rolex punched papers
• The original Rolex President box – inner and outer
• The original Rolex swing tag with the correct serial number along with the original sticker and chronometer chip
• A Rolex service record from 2000
• A Rolex service record from 2010
• The Rolex Datejust and Your Rolex brochures

At the time of writing we have a genuine solid 18ct gold Rolex buckle and a genuine solid 18ct gold Rolex President bracelet which would fit this strap/watch.

We will give a 12 month guarantee on the movement

This is a rare and highly collectable vintage watch from one of horology’s most famous names and will, if history is any judge, provide an excellent financial investment as well as a possession to treasure and enjoy. I will provide an insurance valuation in excess of my asking price. Please appreciate the difficulty of photographing this piece, it looks even better in real life.
