Sonning Vintage Watches

This is a beautiful example of the iconic Rolex Datejust dating from 1970. The solid steel case is in excellent condition with only the most minor signs of wear. The original and untouched Rolex signed steel pearlescent dial is again in excellent condition. The applied steel hour batons and steel hands are perfectly framed by the steel fluted bezel. The very high grade chronometer standard automatic movement is again in excellent condition and has just been fully serviced by our professional watchmaker. To complete this beautiful piece we’ve a new, super high quality, black Hirsch ‘London’ alligator strap with steel Hirsch buckle.

Very rarely, for a watch of this age, we have the original Rolex guarantee. As few as 1 in 50 watches of this age have the original paperwork.

In view of the high quality movement we will give a 12 month guarantee.

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.
