Dealer description — Vintage Watch Specialist

A Stunning Rolex 6482 in Incredible Condition with a Beautiful White Dial Boasting Gilt Furniture, Watch is Now Paired with a Rolex Bracelet, c.1954 The Rolex 6482 does not boast extravagant features but instead shines through its understated elegance and reliability. It's sought after by vintage watch enthusiasts who appreciate its historical significance and timeless design. What's on Offer This is a beautiful example of the classic Rolex 6482 and it is in incredible condition, just look at that jewel of a dial in white with gilt arrowhead hour indexes and dagger hands with luminous inserts. There are also luminous pips on the hour for visibility in low light. 12 and 6 o'clock are gilt applied Arabic numerals. There is a blued steel needle central seconds hand on the central pinion. The dial is blemish-free and in fantastic condition, it is completed by the Rolex signature and encapsulated underneath Plexiglas which is presented in a stainless steel case which is also in very nice condition with only general marks of wear we would expect to see on a vintage watch. At 34mm this watch is slender in proportion but it does wear larger on the wrist. On close inspection, we feel that the dial is in such nice condition that it could have been refinished historically (certainly not recently) but for transparency, we need to point out that this is a possibility. It is to be noted that this watch is illustrated in the photographs as being paired with a leather strap but we have since sourced a period-correct Rolex Oyster bracelet in fantastic condition which we have now replaced the strap with and are awaiting updated photographs, the watch looks great with both so if you are contemplating this watch, do get in touch and we can send you images of the watch on the bracelet before we upload our professional shots. It is running well and keeping good time, a classic watch from the most famous brand in the world, a must-purchase! We Love it!!
