*Not only because is Silver cased, but an extra to this timepiece that this example is signed by C. Bucherer Luxury retailer High End Swiss jewellery brand, that Rolex used to (and still) collaborate with and would only bear its name on exquisite brands.

The two entrepreneurs, the founder of Rolex, Hans Wilsdorf - and Ernst Bucherer were connected by powerful pioneering spirit with passion for high-quality watches.
The example we have here is from those first pieces were sold in the 1930's by Bucherer at the beginning their close business relationship when the Bucherer Group began carrying Rolex watches - a time in which the brand was little known.
