Can you help me identify this Rolex Oyster please??
Hi, my father recently left me this watch and despite looking all over the web for the same watch, I can't find one, similar ones but nothing with the same face. Could anyone please help me?? Photos are attached and details on the reverse of the back are as follows:
Oyster Watch Co. Geneva Swiss Great Britain Patents 260554/1925 274.788 274.789 Swiss Patents 114.948 120.848 120.854 122.110 French Patents 638.179 638.180 USA Patent 1.661.232 German Patent 443 386 29 1069 26352 On the face it says Rolex Oyster, ultra prima, swiss made On the workings it says timed 6 positions 15 jewels Swiss Made Rolex Ultra Prima I need to identify it in order to get an idea on value for my insurance company. Thanks anyone who can help. |

Welcome to TRF. There were no pictures attached to your post. But I can tell you that the watch is certainly not a genuine Rolex. No real Rolex has all that writing on it.

thanks, it is genuine then and is it from the 30's as had been suggested to me?? My dad had the watch for as far back as I can remember and I'm not sure who had it or where it came from before that I'm afraid. Thanks again for your help.
