1957 Rolex Oyster-Perpetual 14K YG (Ref. 6582) "Zephyr"
The Rolex "Zephyr" is a style of vintage Oyster-Perpetual and Oyster-Perpetual Date watches that sport a distinct dial design and bezel style. The Zephyr dial features a cross-hair motif that divides the dial into four different sections and also lacks the usually-seen applied markers. In addition to the dial, the Zephyr bezels feature unique adornments not seen on other Rolex models, making the Rolex Zephyr an eclectic favorite amongst collectors for its stylish approach and limited production numbers.
