Rolex Tudor in Solid 9K Gold with 9K Rolled Gold Bracelet Mechanical Beautiful Condition and Recently Serviced.

A Gentleman’s Classic: Vintage Rolex Tudor 9K Gold Dress Watch

This beautiful and rare Rolex Tudor wristwatch is a stunning example of mid-century horology. Crafted in solid 9K gold and paired with a 9K rolled gold bracelet, the piece dates to 1965 and carries an engraving on the case back confirming its year. Despite being over six decades old, this watch is in remarkably good condition, showing only light signs of wear consistent with age.

With a case diameter of 33mm (excluding the crown) and a slim 9mm profile, it offers a comfortable and refined presence on the wrist. Its proportions make it ideal for formal wear — it will slip effortlessly under a cuff — yet it's robust enough to be enjoyed every day. The champagne dial remains in excellent order, with raised Arabic numerals and gold-tone hands that reflect the understated elegance typical of the era.

This watch houses a manual-wind mechanical movement that has been recently serviced in the final quarter of 2024. It has undergone extensive testing and shows no deviation over a 48-hour period. While we would suggest a routine service within two years, the watch is currently performing exceptionally well and is ready to wear.

The bracelet, crafted in rolled gold over steel, remains in superb condition. Rolled gold, unlike traditional gold plating, features a far thicker layer of gold and is vastly more durable — in fact, rolled gold contains 100 times more gold than a typical plated bracelet and can be restored over time, whereas plated surfaces cannot. It’s a feature that further elevates the quality and long-term value of this timepiece.

This Rolex Tudor was acquired from a carefully curated private collection, which we know well. Buying from such a collection means the vetting and authentication has been thoroughly undertaken, giving you additional peace of mind. It’s rare to find examples of this quality, and the originality of this piece makes it particularly appealing to collectors and vintage enthusiasts alike.

It comes supplied with a Rolex presentation box — not original to this watch, but a fitting accompaniment. The watch remains fully authentic and original throughout, with all hallmarks present, including the “375” gold stamp. It’s an outstanding example of Tudor’s craftsmanship under the Rolex umbrella and embodies the design excellence of its time.

We believe this watch represents an excellent investment, whether as a collectible, a birth-year gift from 1965, or simply as an elegant piece of wearable history. If price is your only consideration, there may be cheaper options on the market, but rarely of this calibre or provenance. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a Tudor that stands well above the rest — beautiful, authentic, and running superbly.
