With Rolex undated Guarantee and presentation box.
A highlight for the connoisseur of rare timepieces, this Submariner is preserved in very appealing original overall condition. It is distinguished by its attractive and nicely aged black lacquer "Spider Web" dial, defined by the crisscrossing of light cracks throughout the entire dial. Like the colour shift of tropical dials, this characteristic is due to ageing and it amplifies the collectability and aesthetic impact of the timepiece. The attractively discoloured luminous material to numerals and hands display a fascinating sand tone with the 6 o'clock hour marker showing a lighter tone, a particularity often seen on early Rolex sports watches. The case, never exposed to careless polishing, impresses any beholder with its full body and sharp angles to the facets of the lugs. The riveted bracelet is from the same period as the watch, its rarity enhanced by the stamp GF for Gay Frères, suppliers of bracelets to many prestigious watch companies, including Rolex and Patek Philippe.
