Good evening everyone!
Approximately 100 well-known collectors, dealers, shop owners, auctioneers, etc. from around the world will gather to showcase their collections and deepen their networking.
[VRA][VRA]. This is the second instalment, and we have picked out models equipped with a unique "tropical dial," so please enjoy!
"Submariner" "Ref.1680/8 "
Commonly known as the "Blue Sub," the Submariner Ref. 1680/8 lives up to its name by featuring a blue dial and bezel.
Many people may have thought this was odd, but that's because it was originally a blue dial, but with age it has been transformed into this beautiful golden tropical dial! This is truly a national treasure! As you can see, the dial condition is excellent, and I have never seen such a beautiful gold tropical dial. The barnacle indexes also create an outstanding atmosphere!
"Submariner" "Ref.6536/1"
Next up is the second generation Submariner "Ref. 6531/1" that has been produced since the 1950s.
This is also a unique piece with a brown discoloration that is hard to find anywhere else. It is a guardless Submariner without a crown guard and features a red top bezel.
It is extremely rare to find a piece with such orange-brown discoloration, and when you hear that this piece dates back 60 to 70 years ago, even those who are not particularly knowledgeable about vintage items will be able to appreciate its incredible quality.
"GMT Master" "Ref. 1675 "
[Vintage Rolex] The popular "GMT Master" Ref. 1675.
This one has also turned a lovely brown, and the discoloration of the indexes and the exquisite corrosion resistance of the bezel make it a watch with a great atmosphere. Dials with minute circles are considered to be particularly rare.
This fascinating change is so striking that it could be mistaken for a wooden dial, making this an exquisite piece that you may never see again.
"Daytona" "Ref.6265 "
It is no exaggeration to say that the most popular of all vintage Rolexes is the hand-wound Daytona, Ref. 6265.
This watch has a beautiful brown sub-dial and is in excellent overall condition. It is no exaggeration to say that a watch with such a beautiful brown color is a work of art.
"Datejust" "Ref.6650 "
The Datejust "Ref. 6605" was only produced for a short period from the mid-1950s to around 1960.
This tropical color is a must-have for fans of color-changing dials. In addition, the alpha hands, wedge-shaped indexes, and red and black calendar give it a vintage feel.
I would love to wear this stylish Datejust when I get older!
"Datejust" "Ref.1600 "
Continuing from the Datejust series, we have the "Ref. 1600", which was produced in the 1960s and 1970s.
The dial of this watch is completely different from the "Datejust" we introduced earlier, and has changed to a beautiful orange-brown color. The luster is still intact, and the dial condition is excellent.
summary
What did you think.
I think all of the watches were extremely rare models worthy of being auction pieces. It was a little misleading to see so many rare watches in one place, but in reality, it would have been a great success if I could have seen any of the watches introduced here. I am truly happy to have had this opportunity, and I hope to use my experience to convey as much information as possible so that everyone can fall in love with watches even more.
We will continue to introduce more and more super rare specimens next time, so please look forward to it!
see you!!
