How often should I service this vintage Rolex?
We recommend a professional service every 5-7 years to ensure the longevity of the automatic movement and to check gaskets.
Can I swim with this 1979 Oyster Perpetual?
Due to its age, we do not recommend swimming or showering with it. Have its water resistance checked by a professional before any exposure.
How do I care for the acrylic crystal?
Minor scratches can be polished out with a small amount of specialized acrylic polish. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Is the Tritium lume still active?
The Tritium material has a lifespan and is likely to have faded to a warm patina, which is normal and desirable for a vintage piece.
