The Dive Watch Connection

My pal Rich @ https://www.timetitans.com/ hooked me up with this amazing pocket watch.

Probably 100 years old, Rolex had won 7 world records at the time of manufacturing.

Amazing dial work. Even more memorizing in person. Purpled hidden mickey hands.

Winds as smoothly as a new watch. Thin and elegant.

The case is platinette.



Movement. Apparently a Montelier.




Case back

WOW! That's gorgeous. I have never seen a Rolex pocket watch. My Dad has a bunch of pocket watches. Mostly Howards' Congratulations.

Found an interesting article about the pattern on the hands.

That’s super cool! Congrats.

Oh my word! That’s epically glorious!

Super-cool watch!

And cool thread; interesting stuff about the architecture of the transept cathedrals and the hands on that watch. Awesome.

Thanks guys. I'm Rolex crazy, but greatly appreciate the history.
