Sonning Vintage Watches

This is an outstanding example of the iconic Rolex Explorer from 2006 with as much provenance as we’ve ever seen. The solid steel case is in overall excellent condition with only some minor signs of wear after a full service and polish in 2019. The original and untouched dial is excellent – any marks are just reflections or dust; the joys of taking pictures of black dials… The super high grade chronometer standard Rolex signed movement is again in excellent condition and our watchmaker is doing the service as I type. The watch sits on the original bracelet and we have the following provenance:

• The original purchase receipt
• The original Rolex punched papers
• The original Rolex brochures
• The original case back sticker and swing tag
• The original Rolex calendar and pouch
• The service record

Finding this provenance is extremely rare. We will give a 12 month guarantee on the watch in addition to our lifetime guarantee on the provenance and authenticity.

This is a rare and highly collectable 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.
