** Provenance: During the Covid One Lockdown our client found the opportunity to carry out a tidy of house and home. On turning out a small family safe, they found this rare Rolex watch which had been forgotten about and had been there for some 30 - 35 years!

The watch was a gift, along with two other items back in the 80's, from an elderly gentleman and his wife in recognition of kindness to them in their later years
