Sonning Vintage Watches

We are working with a local collector and he’s asked us to list a couple of his watches. He father bought this watch second hand in 1991 and wore it 20 or so times over the next 35 years. It’s never been polished and has the original solid 18ct gold Rolex Jubilee bracelet with a full set of 21 links with limited sag/stretch. The solid 18ct gold case does have some scratches but is in very good condition and the lugs are extremely meaty. The original dial is of course untouched and again it’s in excellent condition – our watchmaker will service the watch over the next few days and give the lens and bracelet a thorough clean (not polish). The very high grade chronometer standard automatic movement is again in excellent condition and will be fully serviced over the next few days. The solid 18ct gold Jubilee bracelet is stunning.

Watches of this quality rarely come up for sale, especially unpolished. We will give a lifetime guarantee the authenticity and provenance and give a 12 month guarantee on the movement.

As with the majority of pre-owned watches that are 10 years or older, this particular watch does not come with its original box or paperwork. The watch is 100% genuine and rest assured we provide a lifetime guarantee on the authenticity and provenance of all the watches we sell.

Although there is no original paperwork, we do provide a written invoice and 3 page insurance valuation with the pictures of the watch and all available reference numbers.

This is a beautiful example of a 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. Subject to your location I’ll happily show the watch.
