Vintage Rolex Tudor Prince Oyster 31 Automatic Wristwatch.
This guy is bang on trend as smaller Gents Watches are starting to have a resurgence in the ever changing Vintage Watch market. Not to say this 30.5mm Case doesn't wear beyond those measurements with a bigger presence. I have worn this a few times on test and I found it extremely comfortable on my 7in Wrist and a welcome change from the more common bigger guys.
Honeycomb Dial is one to die for complete with a bit of age related patina, it really is something special.
The next Custodian will be a lucky one indeed as they will be receiving a wonderful vintage Rolex for not a lot of money.

It is lovely to see a Original, unmolested Tudor dial as they seem to be prime targets for the Re-Dialing monsters.
This is the original Untouched Vintage Dial with some warm age related patina and what a superb one at that.
