Rolex.
Platinum. Diamonds. Each of these words evokes refinement, rarity,
and enduring value. Brought together, they create something truly
exceptional: a vintage ladies’ Rolex crafted in platinum
and adorned with diamonds. This is not only a watch—it is
a statement of timeless sophistication and exclusivity.
Today's
offering showcases this rare platinum and diamond Rolex creation
made for the Canadian market. Bejeweled with four diamonds the
platinum Rolex case is luxurious and gorgeous!
Unlike gold or steel examples, vintage
Rolex watches in platinum were produced in extremely limited numbers,
reserved for only the most prestigious clientele. Even fewer were
designed for ladies, making this timepiece one of the rarest expressions
of Rolex’s artistry. The presence of hand-set diamonds only
enhances its beauty, ensuring it stands among the most desirable
Rolex creations of its era.
Showcasing a simple geometric motif
with four original factory set diamonds on the lugs, this cocktail
watch as it is called, added the perfect finishing touch to outfits
worn to galas, award ceremonies, or other special gatherings.
The brilliant
diamonds are white, near flawless, and full of fire as one would
expect from original Rolex contractor set diamonds.
Its case
presents as just short of mint with only very light wear and very
signs of previous polishing. Its dial was restored long ago in
vintage times and has developed a patina giving it a true vintage
look. Please inquire if you would like it freshly expertly restored.
One
of our Master Watchmakers who used to be the watchmaker for an
authorized Rolex dealer and was given training by Rolex at their
Beverly Hills Service Center to be an authorized Rolex watchmaker
has fully serviced the watch which consists of fully disassembling
the movement, carefully inspecting each part, installing a new
mainspring, reassembling and lubricating the movement, and extensive
timing, testing and regulation (a $895 value).
Its original
handwound Rolex movement, signed Rolex, is very clean.
For the
finishing touch, we have meticulously detailed it and installed
a brand new cord bracelet designed to replicate the style of the
original making it ready for immediate enjoyment. If you would
like band holders added near the watch, please inquire.
Included
with the purchase is a one-year C.O.T. international warranty
on the movement and its function and a full-page custom printed
Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity.
A rare opportunity to acquire a ladies’ Rolex in platinum
and diamonds—an exquisite blend of rarity, desirability,
and timeless beauty.

Our
Selling & Shipping Information:
- 100% satisfaction guarantee for all of our watches. If
you are in any way unsatisfied with it, you are welcome
to return it in the condition it was sold anytime within
30 days for a full refund of the purchase price. Our goal
is to exceed your expectations throughout the buying experience.
We hope you love it!
- The water
resistance of vintage watches can no longer be guaranteed
and is not covered under the watch's warranty. We don't
recommend getting a vintage watch wet - and really don't
recommend showering or diving with it - even one that
was originally designed to be waterproof.
- We have
extensive international shipping experience. In the last
12 years we have safely shipped thousands of high value
watches around the world (to over 70 countries!).
- All items are packaged very carefully and mailed in large
reinforced shipping boxes appropriate for high value items
so you don't need to worry about your watch arriving safely.
Wait until you see how big the box is that your watch
is coming in!
(Please do remember though that while we do our very best
and have careful procedures and quality control inspections
- we will again fully re-test the proper functioning of
your watch after you pay, right before we send it to you
- from time to time
some courier workers don't handle packages the way we
think that they would want their own packages to be handled.
Watches are ultra-precision instruments, and the timekeeping
of most is governed by a small spring that is only about
1/8 the thickness of a human hair.
The vast majority of our watches arrive safely and problem
free. However at times vintage watches
and their hairsprings can be sensitive to rough courier
handling or just having a difficult trip to you.
But even on a bad day there's still good news... We offer
a full one-year warranty on virtually every watch we sell
(unless occasionally specifically stated otherwise), so
if anything happens to it in transit or goes wrong anytime
in the first year, we will gladly repair it for you at
no charge. Yes, even the older vintage watches. So sit
back, relax, and dream about the first place where you're
going to wear your new watch!
- Our official
warranty in many ways mirrors those of a number of the
watch manufacturers and covers the proper timekeeping
of the movement. It does not cover things like abuse,
being dropped, crystals, bracelets, crowns, case parts
etc. or water resistance. While we are the sole determinants
of what qualifies for warranty work.... even if you have
a problem that you don't think will qualify for coverage,
tell us about it anyway. We are here to serve and just
might be able to help you.
- Winning bidders must fully pay within 48 hours of the end
of the auction. After 48 hours the watch will be relisted.
- To be fair to all bidders, we make it our practice not
to end an auction early.
- Because of the high rate of lost items and number of fraudulent
payments, we do not sell or ship to Indonesia or Africa.
