It is truly stunning! Our photos couldn't quite capture just how stunning the gems and look in person and the deep lustre of the mother of pearl.
Our Master Jeweler has just polished and detailed the watch. Our Master Watchmaker has fully serviced the watch which consists of fully disassembling the movement, carefully inspecting each part, replacing any overly worn components, reassembling and lubricating the movement, replacing all of the waterproofing seals with new Rolex gaskets, and extensive timing testing and regulation (a $495 value).
We have timed it on a state-of-the-art computerized system, and it continues to run very true.
Accompanying it is its original box.
Included with the purchase is a new two-year warranty on the movement and its function and a new timing certificate attesting to its performance.
