ROLEX Lot n° 106

Rolex 3484 chronograph, ‘40s 18k rose gold round case, n.55053, rectangular pushers. White dial, multi-scale, applied indexes and arabic numerals. Hand-winding movement. Leather strap and Rolex gold plated buckle. Size: 33 mm. Notes: Reference 3484 is one of the most elusive Rolex chronographs; in production from 1939 to 1948 with extremely low numbers, it was cased either in stainless steel or gold, with the rose gold models considered the rarest examples. A specimen of this reference, in stainless steel, is published on page 132-133 of the book "I cronografi Rolex, la leggenda" by Pucci Papaleo.
