| Description: |
This is a very rare and exceptional Rolex Kew A. In the late 1940’s, Rolex submitted a series of watches to receive the coveted Kew A certificate from the Royal Observatory in Kew, England. Out of 136 Rolexes rated at Kew, only sixteen received an “Especially Good”. This was considered the highest rating in the world at the time and meant a mean variation of .49 seconds per day. This particular example was tested at #13. In 1956, 24 of these movements were cased in full size 18k gold cases, making them on of the rarest and most accurate timepieces made by Rolex. The dial is 100% original with some aging.
