74 Years Old Vintage Rolex Tudor Very rare / Solid Gold / Cal. Tudor 17 Jewels / Vintage 1950
EVW PRODUCT NR: 1919
"Rolex quality with a unique identity – A solid gold rarity from 1950."
This 74-year-old Vintage Tudor is a stunning example of Hans Wilsdorf's (the founder of Rolex) vision to create a watch with the reliability of a Rolex but at a more accessible price point. Produced in 1950, this timepiece dates back to the golden era of the brand, often distinguished by the charming "Small Rose" logo.
What makes this piece truly exceptional is its Solid Gold case. In the post-war years, solid gold watches were a luxury few could afford, making surviving examples in this condition extremely rare. Powered by the robust Caliber Tudor 17 Jewels (manual wind), it offers the precise mechanical engineering you expect from the Rolex family, wrapped in a warm, elegant design that has stood the test of time.
Collector Notes
Vintage Tudors from the early 1950s are increasingly sought after by collectors. They share many DNA traits with their Rolex cousins (often using Rolex-made cases and crowns) but possess a unique character. Finding a manual-wind model in solid gold from this specific year is a difficult task, making this an excellent addition to any curated collection.

Omega 43 Years Old Vintage Omega Equinoxe Reverso /Ref. 1860013 / Cal. 1655 / Vintage 1981
From start to finish the transaction was straight forward and smooth. The watch arrived well packed and in the exact condition described. I only recently became interested in "vintage" watches and EVW is a great resource for quality pieces. I already purchased a second and when I find something I like I will gladly purchase again. Thank you Lukasz.
I absolutely love the gorgeous vintage watch I bought from EVW! It’s amazing to be able to wear a watch that is 119 years old. I often wonder what life was like for the original owner in 1906. The watch was delivered very quickly by DHL and was packaged well. A great buying experience!
63 Years Old Vintage Omega Gold plated / Ref. 14395 61 SC / Cal. 285 (30T2) / Vintage 1961
I am so happy with this purchase! Communication was super easy with EVW and they negotiated on price. Upon receiving the watch, I was simply stunned. The condition of restoration is incredible. The gold case is flawless, the case back is perfect, and the dial has only 1 small imperfection (pictured in listing, expected). For a watch from 1982, this is amazing. The Caliber 1110 movement is working very smoothly. The quick-set date is great, and the power reserve is too.
EVW always has an incredible selection of amazing vintage pieces at fair prices with super fast and reliable shipping.
