Hello, I've recently came into possession of this watch and would like to know if it is an authentic Rolex. If it is authentic, can anyone help me identify the model and year it might have been made? Thanks!

Added some additional photos featuring the back of the watch and the box. The bracelet has two hallmarks, "075" and "212AL".

Very Art Deco, absolutely gorgeous. Not likely to find much on this one, they made tons of different cocktail watches over the years. And the hallmarks for platinum back then I guess weren’t as regulated as gold.

Google when they used the 31 victories slogan . That will give you a pretty close approximation. I would, but about to head off to work in a minute

My observation is that it started life as a standard ladies Rolex platinum cocktail watch. The top of the watch looks heavily modified, most likely by a jeweler many decades ago when adding those diamonds. The addition looks very crude. The set diamonds dont fit the case right and there are gaps.
I am going to say that it is half RWC case and half a Jewelers case because of the modifications.
These old cocktail watches are hard to identify since sometimes it was possible to just purchase a movement and have a jeweler build around it which this may very well be.
