Please help in identification

I have recently acquired this vintage Rolex from a dentist in Germany. He tells me that about 30 years ago a friend of his gave this to his daughter for her 18th birthday, she said she would prefer something more up to date, and so he sold it to the dentist to pay for a more modern looking watch. It has sat in storage since then and still has the original dial. I am told it is 100% genuine and at that time, around 1930, there was no serial numbers, or indeed any standardisation of these watches. It measures 32mm across the case. It looks and feels genuine enough, with a lovely sweep of the small second hand. Please could someone that knows these watches tell me firstly anything about it? Secondly, if it was a good buy from a collectors point of view, and if possible, what value I should insure it for? I will of course send this off for a proper valuation if expert members think it worthwhile. Thank you for your time...
