Rolex Oyster Bubbleback, Ref.2940, pink steel dial with applied arabic indexes, circa mid 1940s.
The pink dial with all-arabic numbers is rare in this era of bubbleback, where silver dials are often seen, and gives the watch a textured feeling. The two-piece case with an integrated bezel and middle case, equipped with an automatic movement, is a gem with a sense of gravity and a unique bubble back presence despite its small size of 31mm.
