Description
This circa 1942 Rolex Sky-Rocket shockproof is a famous Canadian military watch that Rolex sold to soldiers at PX stores prior to their venture overseas. These watches sold for $32.75 originally when new. This original gold-filled 29mm case with original dustproof winding crown has never been re-plated or altered in any way. The caliber 59 movement is correctly signed “ROLEX” under the dial. This manual winding Rolex movement has been cleaned and is keeping accurate time. This original two-tone dial features 1/5th second track, red 24-hour outer register, Arabic radium numerals, red sweep seconds, and blued steel pencil hands having original lume. We love finding all-original Sky-Rockets as most have been worn beyond recognition.
