This is a very early Rolex made 8 years after the Company was incorporated and records show that only 25,000 were sold by the early 1920's.The movement is a Rebberg Calibre made by Aegler SA, with whom Rolex had a very close association in the early days and which later became the manufacturing arm of Rolex. Aegler registered the name Rolex as a trade name for watches in 1913, so this is an early issue to the Market.( see Pritchard) The overall length of bracelet & watch is 210mm expanded - (ref. L4..)
