Hailing from the 1950s, the present Rolex Oyster Perpetual ref. 6011 in yellow gold represents the lineage of Oyster Perpetual watches which was first witnessed in 1926. This reference 6011 is preserved in very good overall condition presenting a stunning 14k gold two body case with very strong proportion and a gorgeous graduated engine-turned reeded bezel. The harmony of the case perfectly matches with that of the silvered dial with applied indexes and defies the aesthetics of the present watch. Fitted with feulle hands, the present specimen is further embellished with the historically important signature of Serpico y Laino, iconic resellers on the Venezuelan soil from 1925 in Bolsa in Marcaderes, Caracas.
