This is an amazing vintage rolex. The reference number is 3892 and it was made approximately in 1930. Since it is over 90 years old, it is a manual movement. The movement has 15 jewels and is totally original and signed; it is part of their trademarked ‘shock resisting’ movements. There is a seperate seconds dial. The watch has been recently serviced and is in perfect working condition. The diameter is 29mm and was originally created as a men’s watch. Nowadays, it can be worn by men or women.
Condition is everything and importantly for this watch, the dial is original and is in immaculate condition for its age. The case has been polised professionally. The case is made of solid stainless steel. A cool feature of this watch is that the outer edge of the front part of the case is plated with chromed nickel. This was a trademarked material by Rolex in the 1920’s and 1930’s to give the surface an extra lusture and shine. The proprietary material was called ‘snowite’.
The strap is aftermarket made by top French leathermaker Camille Fournet. It is green lizard and is the standardized length of 115-75, which can comfortably fit a 7.5 inch wrist.
