ROLEX VINTAGE 1920-30S CHRONOGRAPHE POCKET WATCH FOR RESTORATION SNOWITE CASE. AN EXTREMELY RARE ROLEX RETAILED POCKET WATCH CHRONOGRAPHE. THE BASIC MOVEMENT WORKS, THE CHRONOGRAPH WILL NEED ADJUSTING AND THE MOVEMENT SERVICING/REPAIRING AS WELL AS THE ENAMEL DIAL DAMAGE. ROLEX CHRONOGRAPHE IS FIRED INTO THE DIAL SURFACE WITH THE OTHER MARKINGS NOT PAINTED ON. SNOWITE IS AN EARLY PATENTED NAME FOR CHROMED NICKEL USED BY ROLEX FOR THEIR EARLY CASES, FORST REGISTERED IN 1927. THE CASE DIAMETER IS APPROX 40MM. MOVEMENT DOES NOT APPEAR TO HAVE ANY IDENTIFYING MARKS, AND IS GENEVA STRIPE OR WAVE DECORATED AND THE BALANCE HAS A BREGUET OVER-COIL HAIRSPRING. SOURCES QUOTE THESE EARLY MOVEMENTS AS BEING BY MONTBRILLANT, ALTHOUGH I HAVE SEEN A DIFFERENT MOVEMENT USED WHICH RESEMBLES A VALJOUX MORE CLOSELY. _gsrx_vers_775 GS 7.0.3 (775).
