ROLEX. A VERY RARE AND ATTRACTIVE 18K GOLD CHRONOGRAPH WRISTWATCH

Very attractive chronograph, the reference 3695 is a very uncommon finding at international auctions.

Introduced in 1940, the wristwatch was developed for an extremely short amount of time and is part of the rarest chronographs produced by the manufacture. Preserved with the upmost care throughout the years, the timepiece was consigned by the descendant of the original owner and features a very attractive dial with two slightly sunken and engine-turned subsidiary registers, as well as a tachymeter scale with clear writings. In astounding overall condition, the elegance of the dial of and overall appeal of the timepiece is enhanced through the contemporary sized 18K gold case, which retains attractive proportions and clear legible coronet, serial and reference numbers to its case back.

Considering its rarity, overall condition and provenance, the present chronograph represents a rare opportunity for astute collectors to acquire an attractive and important timepiece of the Rolex manufacture.
