Rolex Oyster Perpetual Reference 1018 With Original Papers
I am excited to offer this awesome Rolex reference 1018. The reference 1018 is a rare and oversized Oyster Perpetual model which measures 36mm (43mm lug-to-lug). The 1018 was a reference that was not mass-produced and as a result of its narrow font has become an exciting OP for collectors who appreciate minimal and balanced dials. This example features one of the nicest grey soleil dials which remains in a fantastic state. Oftentimes, the reference 1018 will show signs of water ingress or feature service dials. This example dates to 1966 and was sold at S. Brunati in 1969 The case is lightly polished and the watch is paired on a period correct 7206 bracelet with 58 end links.

The watch comes with the original papers noting it was sold at the retailer S. Brunati in Zurich on January 17, 1969
