Vintage Rolex Stainless Steel men's full sized Oyster
with the rare Super Oyster signed crown. Factory original white dial
signed Rolex Oyster Precision with silver applied logo, hour batons and
hands. Full sized at 33mm x 41mm screw down Oyster case with smooth
bezel and solid lugs. This is the much rarer "Super Oyster" signed crown
model which was only produced for one year and was not a screw down
crown. Many customers had complained about the inconvenience of
unscrewing and screwing on the crown every day to wind the watch, and
the often stripped threads on the crown and barrel. Rolex experimented
with this water sealed non screw-down crown but quickly went back to the
screw-down design the next year, even though you can see by the bright
clean corrosion free movement that this was an effective water resistant
design. This model is very hard to come by and much sought after by
collectors, especially in this kind of all-original condition. Clean
solid stainless steel reference number 6022 case shows light normal age
with no deep scratches, damage or personalization. Powered by the
original Rolex signed 17 jewel mechanical movement which is running
strong and keeping very good time. Crystal shows some use but is
probably original and still very presentable and we have left it as
found. Fitted with a new brown crocodile grain leather strap with Rolex
signed buckle. |
