vintage women's rolex
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.

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.
