Description
This is a correct and all-original Rolex Victory pilot’s watch housed in the original ID, stainless steel 29mm (small) case. These ID cases were used by Rolex here in Canada to circumvent import duties and are completely original and authentic to these WW2 Rolex watches. The Rolex Victory and Skyrocket watches were marketed to soldiers going overseas in WW2 and sold to them in PX stores. This silver dial was restored many years ago and has gently aged while retaining the original pencil-style hands. The caliber 59 Rolex movement was the only movement used in these watches and were not signed on the exposed bridge, but, are correctly signed on the dial plate underneath the dial. This manual winding movement was just cleaned and is accurately keeping time.
