The Oyster Perpetual Reference 1002 stands for timeless elegance, a focus on the essentials, and uncompromising quality. Crafted in 14-karat yellow gold, this model impresses with its clean design language and an aura that is rarely found today in such original condition.

The case of this example is in exceptional overall condition and appears to have never been polished. The lugs are thick and well defined, all chamfers are crisp and clearly visible, and the original waterfall brushing on the top of the lugs is still fully intact.
As the watch has not been worn in recent years, the case flanks have developed a beautiful, natural oxidation, giving the gold a warm and honest patina that strongly enhances its vintage character.

Another highlight is the champagne-colored tritium dial, which is presented in outstanding condition. The luminous plots have aged evenly and harmoniously and are perfectly complemented by the matching original tritium hands, resulting in a cohesive and highly authentic appearance.

Inside beats the proven Rolex Caliber 1520, a robust and reliable automatic movement renowned for its durability and precision.

Dating from 1979, this watch presents itself overall as an honest, untouched collector’s piece with exceptional case substance and a beautifully developed patina.

The watch has been fully serviced by our workshop and comes with a 1-year guarantee.
