When people think of Rolex, a classic dress watch isn't typically what springs to mind, especially given the demand and popularity of their steel sports models. However, it's important to remember that Rolex has crafted a wide variety of styles over the years, beyond just their classic sports models. Among these creations are quiet and elegant watches, such as this example from the mid-1940s. With simple Rolex branding at 12 o’clock, elegant pencil hands and rose gold plated hour markers, the excellently patinated dial is restrained in a way that only a vintage watch can be. Preserved in excellent condition, this reliable companion, ready of any occasion, is a good choice for those with a refined taste.
