Description
1973 ROLEX PRECISION Vintage Mens Ref. 3411 Dress Watch - Stainless Steel & Diamonds

Very Fine & Classic - Gorgeous Restored Condition - 1 Year Warranty

In the 1970's as Rolex was just transitioning its dress watches to be sold under the Cellini moniker, in the midst of their high output of utilitarian Oyster sports watches, Rolex also made much more elegant dress watches. These fine wristwatches often combine a superior hand-wound mechanism with beautiful aesthetics.

The elegant and uncommon dress Rolex Precision showcased in today's offering is a prime example of this phenomenon. It is one the last mens dress watches sold under the Precision label. It features very fine and dramatic styling and a well-executed handwound movement.

It is full size for the style - slightly over 35mm in diameter without the crown - in between the sizes of a mens Rolex Date & Datejust.

It has just finished a true expertly done restoration. With the exception of the full diamond bezel and lugs, which have previously been added by a jeweler, the rest of the watch is fully Rolex down to the original crown.

It presents in gorgeous restored condition. Its case presents as mint and all of the Rolex markings are still intact and clear. Its Rolex dial has been meticulously restored - the printing could pass as Rolex factory done to the naked eye.

Its movement has just been overhauled by a Master Watchmaker. It is near pristine and running exceptionally strong and true, keeping time on par with a new Rolex in our testing position.

Your watch is important to us, and we will take care of it for its lifetime. We provide the best after sale care in the business with an extremely experienced team of four Master Watchmakers all of whom each have over thirty-five years of experience and a large number of parts. One used to be the watchmaker for an authorized Rolex dealership and was given special training by Rolex at their Beverly Hills Service Center.

For the finishing touch it has been equipped with a brand new calfskin leather strap and aftermarket Rolex style buckle making it ready for immediate enjoyment.

Included with the purchase is a one-year warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Certificate of Authenticity, and a new timing certificate attesting to its performance.

Don't miss the opportunity to own the perfect complement to your sporty Datejust, Sub, GMT, or Daytona.
