With its 36 mm steel case paired with an 18K yellow gold fluted bezel, it beautifully balances durability and sophistication. The champagne dial, decorated with applied index markers and subtle tritium lume, offers a refined and legible appearance without excess.
Inside, the movement is the Rolex calibre 3035, a well-respected automatic engine featuring the quickset date function. It powers the time and date with reliable performance typical of Rolex’s mechanical standards from that era.
Although this example comes without box or papers, its Excellent condition, visible serial/reference, and consistent details support authenticity. At Rex Watches NYC, we verify movement performance, inspect dial and case integrity, examine bracelet condition and clasp function, and confirm serial-reference alignment before listing. Each listing includes a detailed condition report and is backed by our 1-year mechanical warranty so buyers can proceed with confidence.
