What is this ROLEX? Please somebody help me.

New to the forum,
found a small collection of Rolex watches at my father's(deceased) study. all are pretty standard except the one in the picture. I did a search on the net but couldn't find anything similar, it is kind of the old tudor rose but at the same time, it is different. If anyone could help me out I would much appreciate it.

It is a Tudor Oyster Prince Date with a reprinted dial which has wrongly been applied with Rolex markings...

Sorry for the loss of your father.

Very interesting timepiece! I am curious whether or not it is housing a Rolex or Tudor movement.

The flower was also repainted IMO. Fun heirloom piece illustrating the types of maintenance/restoration that were common in the past.

Definitely looks like a redone dial from a Tudor big rose date. They are usually 34mm, some manual wind and others automatic. This looks like a manual one.
