Rolex Precision
A friend of mine received a Rolex for his 50th Birthday. It was his grand fathers. It is a Rolex Oyster Date Precision. Not an automatic movement but needs wound. It has gold markings on the dial. There is a + symbol below the Rolex crown on the winder. Can anyone shed any light as to what this means. Is this stainless or platinum. He was told the watch is from the 30's. Just looking for some expert info regarding this watch. Thanks.

Brevet. It's Rolex speak for "patented" I believe it's French. The Brevet + crown (twinlock) was used through the late 50's I believe.
