My father, age 96, recently gave me his Rolex watch which was a gift from my mother in 1961 following a European tour which included Switzerland. I've just had the watch refurbished by Rolex, and it came out beautifully (although very expensive). The watch is a Model 1600/34 Oyster Perpetual Datejust.
My father wore the watch for 40 years before putting it in his drawer; and of course there were no papers or box with the watch when I received it.
I didn't think to ask Rolex for information about the box when it was sent in for refurbishment several months ago.
Can anyone advise how I might find out what style of box the watch would have come in at the time, and where they might be available? Thanks for your help
