Here is a fantastic, all original full set Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date from 1988. The white dial is in excellent condition, with the Rolex crown at 12 o’clock and barely any marks. It has black Roman numerals at the hours with black steel blocks and lume dots at the outer ends. The faceted baton hands with the original lume are in very fine condition, with the original lume intact. The hack stops the watch when the crown is pulled out so the time can be set accurately. The 3 o’clock window with the cyclops eye displays the quick-set date, which should only be used with the hands at the bottom of the dial.

The stainless steel bezel is in very fine condition, with only light overall wear. The stainless steel case has a radially brushed face and polished sides, with the original gold screw-down crown working as it should. It is in very fine condition, with only light overall wear. The stainless steel case back is in very fine condition, with just a few marks.

The original stainless steel Oyster bracelet is in very fine visual condition with little stretching. It is large enough for moderately big wrists. Make sure the specific bracelet size listed in the details is not too small for your wrist as finding spare links for old bracelets is very difficult. The bracelet can be shortened by up to about 2cm simply by moving a spring bar in the clasp.

Inside the watch, Rolex’s high grade 3035 movement beats strongly and accurately to within about +8 seconds per day. The watch was fully serviced in August 2024 and comes with a 12 month warranty on its proper mechanical functioning.

The fantastic condition, original bracelet and original box and papers make this watch a real find. This is a watch that will make its new owner very happy, while also being a great investment for the future.

Our watches are delivered in a luxury wooden watch box, fully serviced with a 12 month warranty that covers the mechanical functioning of the watch under normal use. We offer 14 days full return rights and are very proud of our reputation for outstanding customer satisfaction.
