Can anyone help identify this Pre-Daytona?
Can't seem to find anything that looks exactly like it. Thanks!

Looks like a 4500 to me from the dial, but the pushers are different

most likely is a 2508 with " olive " pushers : dial looks reprinted ( not easy to say from this terrific pic ).
4500 has pushers like 6239 and a " tonneau " case ; on the contrary this watch has a " cassa a moneta " ( = coin case ). |

The closest I could find is a Ref 2919....
It has the same open 6; the 2508 has a closed 6.... Made around 1937.....nice watch BTW !

in any case ref. 2919 has " hooded lugs " much different from the present watch ..
however dial is 1000 % reprinted : just look at the fancy Rolex crown not to mention the bulky numbers in the tachimetric scale ...

Thanks for the help! Went to have another look, and the dealer says it is a rare black dial 2508. Here's a better pic.

I did think the english/french combination on the dial was a bit weird. Thanks for all the help Marcello! Needless to say, I'll be passing on this watch, particularly at $50K+.
