Vintage
Emmanuel, known as quattro on WatchProSite, presents a stunning example of a 1930s Rolex Prince Brancard, sparking a discussion among collectors about its unique attributes. His post highlights the watch's solid silver case and the exceptional 'Rolex Extra Prima' movement, inviting readers to appreciate a vintage Rolex that stands apart from more commonly seen models. This piece serves as a valuable reference for those interested in the historical breadth of Rolex's craftsmanship and design.
And silver is a very classy case material which, unfortunately, we rarely if ever see on modern watches.
And I'm sure the watch looks great on the wrist.
I think that silver is rare because it tarnishes, contrarily to steel, white gold or platinum... But I love this material, for example on my Shea ffer Nostalgia. Best, Emmanuel
Have a great weekend. Best, Emmanuel
I have been collecting these for years Ever since the tiger striped models were more expensive than a Paul Newman Daytona Can you imagine You have shown an exquisite model Beautiful brancard case.dial looks good and original although I learned the hard way , you can never tell from photos no matter how good or detailed they are. On further review it almost looks too good for a 80+ year old watch And movement is a top quality extra prima observatory quality This looks like a perfect model to star
This particular example is sold and I haven't seen enough of them yet. I'm too much of a beginner for now, but hopefully, someday ! I have seen the ones you have posted on IG and I couldn't like them more. Have a great weekend. Best, Emmanuel
