Rolex - Rolex Oyster Perpetual 1002 - "Tiffany & Co" Signed Dial - Very Rare
The Rolex Oyster Perpetual remains one of the brands most refined and "no frills" designs to this day. Going back several decades, the ref. 1002 is without a doubt one of Rolex' most beautiful, yet simple creations. Anyone with an average sized wrist will find that the 34mm vintage case on this reference is as elegant on bracelet as it is on a strap.
This particular example, circa 1982 houses a very rare Tiffany & Co signed dial making it a true collector gem. This dial iteration features a fatter looking co-signature which we find to be one of the most attractive compared to other skinner font examples and it was carefully scrutinized to validate authenticity. The bracelet was also just completely rebuilt by one of the top restoration shops in the world: Classic Watch Repair based in Hong Kong and feels as tight as it was from factory. Overall, this piece has an incredible amount of charm and if you've been looking for a special Rolex addition that easily jumps from sport to dressier settings, don't overlook this stunning Oyster Perpetual.
