Hey Folks!

This beauty will be hard to part with. Nicknamed “The Tony Soprano” from some local RedBar buddies, this gold Rolex is really stunning.

The original owner forgot about it in his safety deposit box (pre NYT article ) for over 20 years. And it shows. The condition is absolutely incredible. I won’t say it’s NOS, but man is it close.

I don’t think you’ll find a more mint gold jubilee bracelet of this age anywhere right now. This is the nicest reference I’ve ever seen.

I’m clearing funds for an incoming grail. My ultimate grail (which is also gold). Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to sell “Tony”.

I tried to include the best pics to showcase the condition - but I promise, you have to see it in real life. It’s a real “wow” timepiece.

Dial: FLAWLESS original champagne dial. Original tritium lumes intact. Original applied line markers are blemish free.

Movement
: Caliber 1570 movement. 26 jewel. Adjusted 5 positions. Officially certified superlative chronometer. Unknown service history. Runs smoothly. Very clean.

Case. Original. Solid 14k yellow gold. Fluted bezel. Unpolished. Razor sharp lugs. Original caseback sticker remnants still present.

Crystal: Original Rolex acrylic.Minor surface scuff. Left in untouched condition.

Serial number
: 610**** dating to 1979.

Reference: 1503

Size: 34mm excluding crown. Lug tip-lug tip (42mm). In between lugs (19mm). Thickness (11mm).

Price: net $5750 USD. Paypal (you pay fees). Bankwire. Transferwise. Free shipping within CONUS. International / Canadian delivery can be negotiated.

Bracelet: Original solid 14k yellow gold Rolex jubilee bracelet (6311). Unpolished. Signed single deployment clasp. Barely worn. Incredible condition.

Returns: only if GROSSLY misrepresented.

Congrats it’s an absolute beauty. This reference will always have a special place in my heart as it was gifted to me by my granddad just before he passed away...my introduction to vintage Rolex.
