PRE-OWNED WATCH CONDITION EXAMINATION

This vintage Rolex watch is in overall excellent condition with the dial showing a beautifully warm patina. The case and bezel show minimal surface wear for its age.

Rolex Oyster Perpetual 5011

"Bubbleback" refers to the unique, Tonneau-shaped case seen on very early editions of the famed Rolex Oyster Perpetual. During this era, Perpetual movements were still new. They required a fatter case to better accommodate the thick auto-rotor powering the self-winding mechanism. Hence, the nickname "Bubbleback." These watches were among the first Rolex watches to feature automatic winding and were produced in various metal finishes. The Rolex 5011 for sale here is presented in rose gold. It features a striking engine-turned bezel, acrylic crystal, and brevet crown. The dial is one of the most remarkable features of this vintage Rolex, featuring older-style hour markers, dauphine hands, and lume that has since aged to an irresistible patina.
