Rolex Bombé Oyster Perpetual Reference 6590 Unpolished on Bracelet
These Rolex Bombé Oyster Perpetual watches are very special models with the nickname deriving from the cambered lugs. This particular reference 6590 is in fantastic condition and features the uncommon Explorer dial with applied 3, 6, and 9 numerals. The 18K yellow gold case is appears to be unpolished. It measures 33.5mm in diameter and 40mm lug-to-lug. The watch dates to circa 1955 with a 120,xxx serial. It is paired on a rare Gay Freres 18k stretch Rivet bracelet with 19mm straight end links dating to 1956. The bracelet could be $20,000 alone if paired a Pre-Daytona!
This watch does not come with box and papers. We do not know the service history, but it is running well. It just passed a water resistance test of 1 bar.
PRICE: $29,000 (Item SBUXYT3388)
