A vintage Rolex Oyster Perpetual Chronometer, reference 6565, in a gold case with a cream dial, leaf-shaped gold markers and a ridged bezel, on a gold-coloured bracelet.
The Piece
Rolex was founded in London in 1905 and moved to Geneva in 1919, and its Oyster Perpetual, introduced in 1931, added a self-winding rotor to the waterproof Oyster case.
Reference 6565 is an Oyster Perpetual Chronometer from several decades ago. The cream dial has leaf-shaped gold markers, a gold crown emblem, and the words Oyster Perpetual and Officially Certified Chronometer, under a ridged gold bezel and a small crown.
The watch was serviced once some years ago and runs as it stands. The case back was stiff and would not open, so the movement is not shown and the gold content was not confirmed. The bracelet appears to come from another Rolex. The photographs show the head from the front and the side as well as the watch on its bracelet, and they show the wear plainly.
