ROLEX Oyster Viceroy ref.3359 / 1940s Cushion Case, Two-Tone

— The memory of accumulated eras —

A 1940s Rolex Viceroy, born beyond the confusion that followed the Depression and the shadow of war.

A watch full of vintage feeling, quietly carrying the weight of its period.

— A soft beauty of form —

A yellow gold bezel dissolves into a cushion-shaped case base, giving a gentle and distinctive expression.

Within a hard material, a soft impression lives.

— Space left in the design —

Perhaps because a small seconds was planned for later, a quiet space remains toward six o'clock on the dial, and it stays in the memory as a distinctive design.

— Character born of free thinking —

Rolex at the time produced many designs built on free thinking, holding its own ground in a watch industry then struggling.

The Viceroy in particular took army-issue watches as its motif, and is said to have been sold from the 1930s.

Behind it you can glimpse an attitude of making watches that faced its own era squarely.

— A piece of a great history —

A watch that puts you in touch with Rolex's great history.

Distinctive and yet somehow nostalgic, with a design you grow fond of.
