Rolex Oyster 2331

A manually-wound Oyster from the mid-1930s, significant for its stylish Art Deco case. Sometimes called the “Egyptian,” it features distinctive stepped lugs that give it a unique architectural profile. This reference is an important example of Rolex’s design versatility, proving that their revolutionary waterproof technology was not confined to simple cases but was also offered in fashionable and elegant designs, often in precious metals, to appeal to a style-conscious clientele.
