Everybody mistakes this 1946 Rolex for a 60s. It is the beginning of the non bubble back. In many of our listings there are bubble backs, but this is a very special watch. It's signed four times by Rolex, not including the band. The band itself has the old time style huge Rolex stamped into the band. The crown also has the Rolex symbol on it. The case number is 435861, and the movement number is N77334. The movement is a 1030 movement. I don't think you'll find one in more original condition. Although the band is worn, it is still very usable. I would rank the band as a 5. So with a rose gold fluted bezel, along with a 14kt crown and band, the watch is extrememly rare. It also comes with a Rolex inner box. Although not original to this specific watch, Rolex boxes are worth around $300 themselves.
