Rolex is the world's leading luxury watch brand. The date and datejusts have been the backbone of the brand since the development of the Oyster case. This Date model features a two tone stainless steel case with 18K gold bezel. It is mounted on its original stainless steel and 18K gold oyster bracelet. The unique feature of this watch is its beautiful bald eagle graphic on the dial. It is powered by a 31 jewel fully adjusted automatic movement. The date function is quick set. This is truly a one of a kind piece.
Condition Report: Dial is in very good condition. Case is in good condition with minor scratches and polishing. Movement is running at time of cataloging. Overall the present example is in good condition.

Pre-owned watches, unless still in original packaging or never worn, will likely have some degree of wear and scratches. This should be expected for many of the watches offered in auction. Even if a watch is running, bidders and buyers should expect that all movements will require maintenance. Watches are not guaranteed to be keeping time. Fortuna recommends that all successful buyers promptly take their watches to a professional watchmaker for evaluation.

Any reference to condition in a condition report will not include a full description of condition, and for example, may not specify all faults, alteration, adaptation, mechanical replacements or imperfections to the movement, case, or dial.
