Rolex 9ct precision coin edge

[taz]

Hi

Took this Rolex precision solid 9ct gold with a coin edge in trade but don't think it's my cup of tea as I don't wear dress watches, I have never seen one with a coin edged case. What you think of this Rolex guys? Looking on the net they sell from £1700 upto £2k so I may have picked up a bit of a bargain

What did you pick it up for?

I'd say those are strong dealer prices.
Would have thought around £1200 to £1500.

hi

i think you your very close it actually owes me £1350 which i think its a good price

Because of their small size tend to be less popular.
They offer great value for money IMO.

They make excellent birth year watches - out of curiosity what year is it - i'll guess somewhere between 1955 and 1964.

It's a 34mm case I think it's a 1961/2 with the cal 1210 movement

Haven`t seen one of these before. I like 50s/60s gold dress watches, pure class compared to the garish modern stuff. Some folks don`t get it, others do.

Provided there's a UK hallmark on the case it'll be easy to date it, assuming the hallmark is still clear enough to read.

The crown on this looks wrong to me, it isn`t covering the pendant tube properly, doesn`t appear to fit correctly from the pic unless it's been pulled out into handset?

Slightly surprised the OP took it in trade if he doesn`t like dress watches?...........not something I`d do personally.

Hi

I took it in trade as I liked it's unusual design and it helped move a watch on for me I don't dislike dress watches just don't wear them often enough to justify having them. To be totally honest I don't know about the crown it is a Rolex one and was told it's the original one to the watch but I don't claim to be an expert

Did you miss this?

In order to establish if it was the bargain to which you repair, we need a little more information.

Unless you're going to take the advice and just simply list it on Sales Corner?

Not advice, call it an apparition, or perhaps just obvious
