This is a Rolex Oyster Bubbleback Ref. 2940 manufactured in the early 1940s, featuring a popular black semi-unique dial. The black gilt dial, which has aged nicely over time, along with the original luminous indices equipped with Mercedes hands, exudes a wonderful vintage charm. The two-piece case, where the bezel and middle case are integrated, has a solid construction. Despite its small 31mm size, this masterpiece exhibits the distinct presence of a Bubbleback with its automatic movement. The design variations in dials and cases, materials, waterproof features, and automatic movement all showcase the originality unique to Rolex from this era. It comes with a later model genuine bracelet.
