·I've been asked to sell the watch below on behalf of the family of the original owner.
This is a less common Rolex pocket style watch with original bakelite case. The watch has sat, unused, for some decades until it received a full service this month. The mainspring and hairspring have both been replaced while everything else is original. There are no cracks or hairlines in the dial, though there are a few age related marks. Hands are original. It goes without saying that nothing has been polished. The watch is perfectly straight on the timeograph and is currently running just a few seconds a day slow.
Dial, case and the 546 movement are all signed.
The case is a rare survivor, this being used to attach the watch to the communications (radio) set.
This watch was issued to the current owner's great-grandfather who was in the British Army and also seconded at one point to the RAF.
Frankly, the photographs speak for themselves so I'll move straight on to those:
It goes without saying that any questions are welcome and if further photographs are required I will supply the same.
Asking price is £1350.00 including insured delivery.
Thanks for looking and, OF, thanks for the space.
