    Average gold pocket watch at the time. Movement probably not an actual "Rolex", would need to see the actual movement.

    Before the Rolex publicity machine developed the brand this would have been just another mid level watch.

    (My thoughts, probably not absolute fact).

    You finished playing with Tonka trucks yet?
