Description

Fine and Historic Bubbleback Water-resistant Automatic Wristwatch in Steel, With Gilt Black “California” Dial, Reference 2280 Model: Bubbleback Reference: 2280 Case Material: Stainless Steel Bracelet Material: Leather Strap Year: 1942 Movement: Manual Caliber: 10 1/2 Case N°: 184708 Dimensions: 30 mm Signed: Dial, Movement and Case Rolex Bubbleback is one of the most versatile models ever produced by the brand: among the most sought-after variants of the legendary “bubble back” series, this very nice piece, furthermore, stands out by its attractive combination of a stainless steel and black dial. The three-body steel case is solid and presents a “machined” bezel with double baton at 12 o’clock and single baton at the other hours, screw down back and crown. The black gilt dial has Arabic and Roman numerals so called from the collector “California” dial, outer minute track, with a charming patina but in real nice conditions. The caliber that powers this watch is the 10 1/2“’ nickel-finished lever movement.
