1960 Rolex 1016 Gilt Dial

Sold

“So much Gloss!”


Case: Excellent case and bezel with light wear for 60 years of use. The casebook from a 1625 stamped I. 60 which ironically has the right year of production. Mostly likely the caseback was swapped during a Rolex service at some point. The original plastic crystal has a crack near the 12 o'clock edge. The serial number is partially worn down but visible with a loop.

Dial: Excellent glossy gilt chapter ring dial. The black portion of the dial is still very glossy and even. The original luminous material on both the dial and the hands glows but drops off quickly under UV light.

Bracelet: Excellent Swiss Rivet band with 58 end pieces stamped 4 60
