Unlike nearly all vintage gem set Rolex watches, that are set only with diamonds, this very rare example is also set with rubies! If you are a ruby lover who would like an original gem set Rolex, don't miss this opportunity!
Although it didn't really show up in our photos, when viewed in person the diamonds are full of fire and sparkle as one would expect from original factory set diamonds for a Rolex.
Here are a few of the features that earn this watch its place among Rolex's superior wristwatches:
- Exquisite case factory set with very high quality rubies and diamonds
- Beautiful original bracelet with hammered finish made for Rolex
- Silver Rolex dial with 18K gold dial markers
- High grade, original Rolex mechanism with free-sprung balance for enhanced accuracy. Protected against shock in two places for greater durability
