vintage women's rolex

[whirlwynds]

can anyone help provide more info on this rolex? I came across it at the antiques mall this weekend and the seller claims it is a 1930s model. $300, not running.

No way that is a real Rolex.

the bracelet does match this one here, purportedly from 1918.

I do admit, I've never seen a rolex like this one!

The pics aren't up close and are blurry, but from what I can see, that isn't a genuine Rolex. It seems to be just a regular, probably no name brand watch that had the dial refinished with Rolex writing. Would need to see a pic of the inside of the case back and a pic of the movement to be sure, but it doesn't look right to me.

here's another photo of the face. perhaps one of these? http://watchestobuy.com/rolexstandard-htm/

Open the caseback numbers are on the inside. I can't say much else from those photos other than the dial is resprayed,It's plated and it maybe a rebadged Tudor also.

Back in those days, a lot of boutique jewelers would stuff a Rolex movement into a generic case that the customer picked out. Showing us the inside of the caseback and the movement should confirm this as being true or not.

Thanks guys. If I had the watch I'd take more photos of the movement. Given then price and the fact it needs repairs to get it running I'm gonna pass on this one.

I'm guessing it may have looked like this
