The Rolex Bubbleback stands as one of the most versatile models ever produced by the brand. Among the most sought-after variants of the legendary “Bubbleback” series, this reference 3065 with its distinctive hooded lugs further distinguishes itself with its attractive combination of a stainless steel and pink-gold case and bracelet. The three-body steel case is robust and features a smooth, concave pink gold bezel, screw-down back and crown, and gold cachet lugs. The dial has acquired a captivating patina with an attractive ocher hue, adorned with applied pointed dagger and Arabic numerals, an outer five-minute division, hands with luminous material, and a subsidiary seconds dial at six o’clock. Additionally, it is equipped with an Oyster riveted bracelet, a feature always highly appreciated by collectors.
