Specialist note

With original Rolex box and guarantee

The present example of ref. 1675 is distinguished by its exotic and attractive so-called nipple dial (due to the peculiar shape of the dot numerals), in wonderful state of conservation: its purplish shade goes in perfect accord with the warm ivory of the luminous hands and indexes, and the deep orange/brown of the bezel. A true eye-catcher for both the connoisseur and one new to watch collecting.
