Lot Essay

Delivered with an example of Tudor Anthology by Alberto Isnardi.

This reference 7149/0 is a fine example of the blue version of the first model from the second series of the Oyster Chronograph introduced in 1972.

The grey dials are combined either with blue or black for the background of the registers, minute markers and blue or black bakelite bezels. It is fitted with the new hand-wound chronograph calibre 234 and sold with Rolex Oyster bracelet ref. 7836.

A similar reference 7149/0 is illustrated and described in Alberto Isnardi's Tudor Anthology, pp. 139-140.
