Ive heard of early Australian Rolex Unicorn watches but it was usually a Rolex movement and case with a Unicorn dial. This one seems to be backwards. The Rolex Unicorns were pre-1933. You may have a later Unicorn and a dial that has been redone in order to fool someone to think its an early Rolex model. FYI, it is against the forum rules to give price evaluations

Never heard about this rule. Why wouldn't people allow to ask price evaluations. That seems weird that we would be asking people with high knowledge of pieces and asking an opinion on there thought of worth. Thats like asking do you think buying a 116610LN for 12k worth it. You're pretty much asking a price evaluation at that point. Without actually asking for a price evaluation. And i see those kind of questions all the time.

I thought I read it somewhere, maybe it was on the other watch forum that has a no price evaluation rule

The dial looks like an old repaint to me, possibly done in the 50's.
