Rolex · Opera Glasses · Green Lacquer & Gilt · With Original Rolex Pouch · 1970s

Rolex made opera glasses. Almost nobody has seen a pair.

A cased set in deep green lacquer over gilt brass, with ribbed gilt eyepieces, a knurled central focus wheel stamped with the Rolex coronet, and gilt bezels around each objective. Supplied in its original green suede pouch, embossed ROLEX.

Rolex produced a small number of accessories and gifts outside watchmaking, and they surface far less often than the watches — most were given rather than sold, and few survived with their pouches. This set is complete.
