Case: Beautiful, perfect case with well-preserved angles and chamfers. Bezel in perfect condition. Case back mark II 68 because Rolex used all the old case backs of the 1019 still in stock because this model was very little produced. Original brass dust cover. No significant visible shocks. Movement specific to this reference and model cal 1580. The milgauss have always had a movement exclusive its reference in order to guarantee its proper functioning even in the presence of very strong magnetic fields that another non-professional watch would not support.

Dial: Beautiful and rare original white silver metallic dial with perfect tritium luminescent indexes all present and still luminescence. We rarely find this transitional dial with tritium dots and quarter seconds or chapter ring very rare. Superb homogeneous patina of the indexes and the original bevelled hands. Very nice overall condition. Dial in perfect condition with a beautiful patina without any flaws. Almost impossible to find today and highly sought after in this configuration. All the tritiums of the indexes and hands reatc under UV then go out (original).

Our opinion: A magnificent example of one of the rarest references at Rolex vintage reference 1019. The Rolex Milgauss with its white silver dial and quarter-second tritium indexes, chapter ring and Milgauss writing in red. A must have from a Rolex collection, model produced until 1980, this watch is part of the first series of 1971 but sold in 1980 very unpopular at the time so little produced. The watch is in perfect condition, its original dial one of the rarest with a superb patina on the indexes which match the hands with the clearly visible red! Rare watch in this condition because they almost all had a service dial. A very nice collector’s item and in very good condition with its original folded bracelet and especially in full set punched very very rare later but more pleasant to wear.
