ROLEX Bubbleback ref.3372 / Pink Gold and Steel, Tropical Dial

— An amber memory, baptised by time —

Ref.3372 was born while the world was in turmoil: a monument of Rolex's early automatic watches, known as the Bubbleback.

Over long years its dial has changed from its original colour into a deep, warm amber — a tropical dial, and one of a kind.

It embodies the incalculable aesthetics that only a vintage watch has.

— A beauty of form woven from pink gold and steel —

A composed stainless steel case, with a striking pink gold engine-turned bezel adding colour.

The small 32mm size particular to this period has a concentrated density modern watches do not, and what appears at a cuff is understated yet definitely dignified.

— Marking a legend —

Fitted with the celebrated Cal. ROLEX NA, meeting chronometer standards.

The form that swells to make room for the rotor to turn is evidence of the passion of the engineers who carried automatic winding through its earliest years.

The combination of Mercedes hands and Arabic indexes carries the adventurousness and the usefulness of that era into the present.

— A witness of history —

A watch that has come through nearly eighty years in beautiful condition.

Not merely a watch, but something that wears a story running from the past into the present.

As a symbol of Rolex's early automatics, and as a treasure of vintage, it will begin marking new time on the wrist of whoever comes next.
