It's not legible in this shot but Herbert Wolf was a jeweler that co-branded some Rolex and Unicorn dials.

It looks like the majority of retailer signed Rolexes were from the 1920s and 30s. Did this practice fade out postwar hence the rarity of signed Day Dates and things like that?

Supposedly Tiffany stamped their own dials so that's why you see those up into the 1990's. |

Here's a Joyeria Riveria double signed dial. Joyeria Riveria was located in Havana, Cuba and later moved to San Juan, Puerto Rico after Castro took power.

Very interesting Rob. It's very unusual to see a Thai branded Rolex from that (or any) era.

I own a ref 1501 from 1966 (1,4M serial) with Tiffany & Co printed on dial. Ink print and ink color hue are a bit different from the rest of dial wordings. I would like to know if this is truly cobranding. Thanks in advance for sharing your thoughts
PS: I already posted this watch in TRF Vintage subforum for information and watch correctness. Seems legit, bracelet is “aftermarket” (i.e a copy one), claimed Hong Kong made by seller |
