This pictures were sent to me of a Rolex Unicorn for sale. I don't know anything about this model and if its all original. Hoping someone might enlighten me on the watch shown below.

Yes the case is signed. Is the watch still worth pursuing?

I will say that watches signed Unicorn are not as desirable as ones signed Rolex. Alot of people are just not aware of the connection. I bought a Unicorn and a Marconi at a watch auction for around $100 each, just because no one else new they were a "Rolex". At a watch auction. ONe posted on the internet as well. If no one knows there, what about the general public. The old watches are not shock resisitant as well, so are not as sturdy, as more recent watches.
In the end, it is just how much you like it, and what it is worth to you.

If the resale is your concern, then I would stay away.
If you really like the art deco style of this, then you may want to buy, it would be hard to find something very similar.
