I put Rolex in quotes as this is technically not a Rolex...it's a Hans Wilsdorf / Oyster Watch Co. I don't know much about vintage Rolex and I certainly don't know anything about this...hoping there is someone here with more knowledge about this piece. This is from the original owner's family which was found amongst a handful of other old watches (Timex, Hamilton, etc.). No bracelet and was stored in the leather pouch you see in the pictures. Movement is very clean and the watch works! Can anyone tell me anything about this piece?

Case back inscriptions:

Oyster Watch Co
Geneva-Swiss
Great Britain Patents
Swiss Patents
French Patents
U.S.A. Patents
German Patents
Crown logo with "SAR" beneath
