Description
The Rolex reference 2280 we have here dates from the 1940s and early 1950s, a time when watches were smaller than today. With a case diameter of approximately 29–30 mm, this model is typical of that period. The steel Oyster case is completely original and unpolished and features a screw-down case back with Rolex crown engraving and a smooth bezel. The original winding crown is period-correct and relatively large compared to the watch, making it wear slightly larger than one would expect based on the size.
This vintage Rolex 2280 features its original white dial and has a subdial at the six o'clock position, which serves as a seconds hand. Of course, we cannot forget the faceted hour markers and the so-called dauphine hands. This combination represents a true piece of Rolex history and makes it a genuine collectible, if you ask us, and of course it makes us very happy!
It can be said that the Rolex Speedking has become a beloved vintage model among collectors. It is precisely the modest size, the manual-wind movement, and the simple appearance that make reference 2280 a beautiful piece of Rolex history, cherished by vintage watch collectors today.
The watch is powered by a manual-wind Rolex caliber, which has recently undergone a full service by our watchmaker. This vintage Rolex Oyster Speedking Precision reference 2280 comes with a 24-month warranty on the movement.
