The case is in very strong and well-preserved condition, showing thick and symmetrical lugs that exhibit minimal signs of previous polishing and light signs of use. The smooth stainless steel bezel is in excellent condition and shows gentle wear. The watch retains its original Rolex Brevet (+) crown. The Rolex 7835 folded-link Oyster bracelet with 357 end pieces is an early Rolex service unit and is in excellent condition, retaining 13 links that show almost no stretch and will fit up to a 7 1/4-inch wrist.
DIAL & HANDS
The original, uncommon, and truly stunning white "OCC" dial features the sought-after "honeycomb" texture with raised gold markers and Rolex logo that create a wonderful dimension to the dial. The dial itself is in impressive condition, showing no damage with a subtle warm color hue that enhances the aesthetic of the watch. The radium lume plots all remain present with minimal degradation visible under UV light inspection, and feature a charming beige patina. The original alpha hands match the dial and feature the original blued seconds hand for a distinct touch of color. Under UV light inspection the hands show no degradation.
