Dial unrefurbished and in original condition, case unpolished, eco movement still accurate.

An acquaintance has one like yours.



1957, if memory serves correct. Want to say it's an early Air King, but I'm not well informed when it comes to Rolex.

He's the original owner, bought it while in the Armed Service during a tour of duty in Japan.

This Watch belong to my wife’s uncle Taylor. He was a judge back in the 50s in Knoxville. The watch still has its original stretch riveted bracelet. 25j with cal 1030 sr# puts it 1952. It has a lot of sentimental value to my wife and me.

Not only sentimental value but a really nice watch to boot

I recieved this watch 1 yr ago today. My wife calls it my "Holiday watch", because I wired out the money on my maternal Grandfather's birthday, it hit the U.S. on my wife's birthday and it arrived at our home on July 12th, our Anniversary. So, today, more importantly, is my 34th wedding anniversary. My wife will accept any and all condolences you fellow watch addicts wish to extend her. LOL. This is an old pic, as I am at work, doing manual labor and I won't actually wear it until I am home and maybe take the lil lady out for a well deserved dinner.

Mck

P. S. Special thanks to @emilio who sold the watch. It has been as good as promised and to @ICONO, who talked me through my first Rolex purchase. You are both gentlemen.
