Collectors of Rolex will appreciate the aesthetics of a Rolex that has what is now known commonly as a Buckley Dial which has hour markers as Roman numerals and a distinct minute tracker on the outer edge. This particular example has a white dial in a stainless steel case with a smooth bezel and an acrylic that incorporates a cyclops lens which displays the date. The Tritium luminous spots are all present and they are set against silver tone hour baton markers. It makes for a busy, but very attractive dial combination. This watch is in absolutely amazing condition for its age and is working perfectly in all its functions, keeping excellent time.Â
