Description

*Champagne dial *Sapphire glass windshield Screw-in crown *28,800 vibration second hand stop mechanism Date fast-forward mechanism *Many old solid gold Rolex models have leather straps. I think that there are cases where the bracelet has been twisted and changed to a leather belt, but it seems that some were originally sold as a leather belt type. This individual has a "SUPPLIED WITH LEATHER STRAP" stamp on the warranty card, so it was originally sold as a leather belt type. *It is generally said that sapphire glass came to be adopted for Rolex in the late 1970s. This individual is an early sapphire glass model. It seems that there was a sapphire glass model around 1970 as a special model. *This model has a K18 case, but SS spring bars are used. For the K18 bracelet, the K18 spring bar is the original combination, but for the leather belt, the SS spring bar is the correct combination. Even if you look at the OH statement of Nichiro, it is stated that it has been replaced with an SS spring bar.
Belt: genuine leather belt/genuine K18YG buckle *Genuine leather belt was replaced at Rolex OH on April 2019. The genuine buckle has not been replaced, so it may be old to some extent.
Accessories: ” Warranty (June 1978 Hong Kong) Japan Rolex International Service Warranty and Delivery Statement (April 2019)
Case diameter/arm circumference: about 36mm
Condition: *Considering the age, it is second-hand A+* It is not non-polished (unpolished), but I think it is in a condition equivalent to non-polished (unpolished). *I don't think there are many individuals over 40 years old that are in such good condition. *There is no case thinness and the edges are solid. The state of hairline processing is also good feeling. The bezel is also sharp enough. *There are no scratches on the sapphire glass windshield. There is no crown watermark, so it is at least older than around 1999. It may be from the time, but the sapphire glass does not deteriorate, so it does not have the depth of taste that has passed through the ages. *The dial and hands have been replaced at Rolex OH in April 2019, so it is Luminova luminous. I think that this type has little effect on the appearance because the area of ​​​​the night light is very small. *The genuine leather belt has been replaced at Rolle OH on April 2019. There is some feeling of use, but there is no sweat stain.
