Description

Another spectacular vintage Rolex that I recently acquired from a private collection. Here we have a superb example of the World’s first waterproof watch, the Rolex “Cushion” Oyster. Of course, today this watch would not be suitable for use in the water, but this is the model that Rolex marketed back in the 1920’s as the first watch that could be worn whilst swimming.This particular model boasts a beautiful white and un-damaged porcelain dial, Rolex signed, with Roman hour markers and screw down front case.The rear case is also screw down and is beautifully signed as per images below. Rolex patented “lock down” crown also present. This watch is absolutely immaculate in every way.I have seen lesser examples of this model sell for more than £6,000 in fancy London specialist shops. So my price represents a truly magnificent bargain.Case size is approx 31mm square and is approx 36mm wide if you include the Rolex signed lock down Oyster crown.Case is hallmarked for 1929, watch is triple signed, movement just cleaned and serviced. 3 months all parts and labour warranty, seven day money back guarantee.Supplied on a new (non Rolex) replacement strap and our own presentation box. Insurance valuation documentation is also supplied free of charge.
