Notes

Produced from 1959 until 1977, the Turno-o-graph was unusual as it had a revolving bezel similar to Submariners. Scholars believe that only about 2000 examples were produced in 18k yellow gold. Purchased new in Geneva, the watch has remained in all original condition still fitted with its rare riveted Rolex yellow gold bracelet.

Property of the original Swiss owner
