Notes
This charming vintage Rolex Oyster Perpetual Lady in 18k yellow gold has a lovely vintage feel with perspex glass and gently faded dial and hands. The watch has been well used and has been polished over time. With a manufacture date of 1980 (62** serial) it would equally suit a 35th birthday in 2015 or an enduring long term gift. We have fitted a quality pink leather strap, or this watch may be chosen with a quality black leather strap. Should you wish to specify a different colour leather please advise us prior to purchase.

History
The Rolex Oyster was the model which put Rolex on the map. Being the first waterproof wristwatch, the model features (and still does) a screw-down crown which assured water resistance. Used by the first cross channel swimmer, subsequently and cleverly advertised this model found immediate popularity for its attractive and timeless looks coupled to a highly durable case and bracelet. The lady Perpetual is arguably the most practical ladies watch available.
