My "NEW" rolex watch

Hello,

I am newbie for Rolex. Recently, I've bought a Rolex watch and fixed it.

Its serial number is 3059 36402.
Do you know which is the model number, 3059 or 36402? Thanks.

Hello Mawowo, this is a very unusual and rare watch my friend.
Prince Elegant Curvex...You did very well, of cource the #3059 is the reference or model number
and the 36402 is the serial number from 1936-1937 which is exactly when a prince like yours was "born".
Only very few made
Value...?... around 35.000 dollars.

Hello TempoKing, Hello frostie

Thanks for your information.
Here are the photos I took:-







What do you mean about value? Do you mean the price at that moment?
Thanks again! Enjoy the photo

Although you do have a wonderfull "prince" the condition is not what I thought.
I thought you had something similar in quality like in the link I am attaching

http://www.antiquorum.com/eng/brandi...ionid=108.html

Also the word chronometre under the Rolex in the dial seems rare because they did not
say anything under Rolex back then.
By value, I mean how much the watch is worth if it was like the one in the picture.

yes. you are right.
It comes with two dial, a black one (no Chronometre) and a white one (with Chronometre).

Thanks for your information. I bought with Euro 3500 and fixed with 200.
