Description
Tudor / Rolex Oyster Royal Ref. 7934 vintage wristwatch, circa 1965
A stainless steel manually wound centre seconds wristwatch
This Oyster model has a silvered dial with an unusual circular satin finish and applied baton indexes which are faceted downwards towards their upper edges, naturally following the curve of the dial surface. During the 1950s, the so-called ‘Alpha-shaped’ hand design was already in use on Tudor watches, but the style remained popular on models such as this through to the second half of the 1960s. The stainless steel Rolex Oyster case has the typical screw down crown and case back as well as a smooth chamfered bezel.
