The first thing that jumps out is the absolute stunning color the dial has taken during its ageing process and has turned to a beautiful warm brown color. This combined with the yellow gold case also very well preserved as seen by the Rolex crown and case and reference numbers clearly visible on the caseback that are often missing due to wear and polish. Still a great value and much rarer than the later chronographs, this is one of the most attractive gold 2508 we have ever offered.
