definitely not an expert, but a DJ with a glass back? from the 30's?? I thought that the DJ wasn't introduced until the 50's?

I dont think anyone here will have a pic of a DJ from the 30's with a glass back...because there wasn't ever such a thing made...

I don't think any Rolex watches in vintage times were made with display backs (are any made thusly even now?) -- so that aspect was likely custom/aftermarket by a previous owner.

Yes, photos would be appreciated!
