We are working with a UK based collector who has asked us to market a selection of his watches. As part of the offer each watch has had a full service and refurbishment by the UK’s leading watchmaker, Steven Hale Watch Restoration. Each watch will come with a 2 year guarantee from Steve Hale and a lifetime guarantee on the authenticity by Sonning Vintage Watches.
The Rolex Day-Date was the original and, to this day, their flagship watch – one of the many famous advertisements for this watch featured a Boardroom table with the strap line of ‘Men who make decisions wear a Day-Date (apologies for the sexist nature…).
This is a stunning example of the iconic Day-Date from 1974 (serial 3.8 million). The solid 18ct gold case is as near faultless as can be and the original Rolex signed champagne textured dial is original and again in excellent condition. The super high grade Rolex signed automatic ‘chronometer’ standard movement is again in excellent condition after the service from SHWR. The watch sits on a new, super high quality, black Hirsch ‘London’ alligator strap with genuine Rolex gold plated buckle.
