Rolex 14K Yellow Gold Oyster Perpetual Bubbleback Wrist Watch

Here is a fantastic vintage Oyster Perpetual Bubbleback, a trendsetter in the developing world of sporting watches from the 1930’s and 40’s.  The “bubble” came into play to accommodate the larger movement of the self-winding/automatic movement.  Also the design contributed to maintaining water tightness.

Rolex crafted this watch in 14k yellow gold, and it has a 17 jewel automatic movement.  The dial features Roman numerals, tapering gold baton hands, and a sweep seconds hand.  Additionally, this great looking watch comes with an 18 month warranty.

38mm x 32mm case

Circa 1940
