Vintage Louis Rossel Automatic 1624 Day Date Brown Dial Gold Plated 38mm Watch

About this watch

A bold 1970s Swiss automatic from Louis Rossel, reference 1624. The sculpted gold-plated tonneau case flows straight into an integrated gold-tone bracelet, framing a sunburst dial that fades from deep brown at the edge to warm gold at the centre. The dial is set with amber-coloured stones at the hour positions and faceted baguette-style markers at 12, 6 and 9, with a white day-date window at 3 o'clock. The "T Swiss Made T" signature marks it as a 1970s tritium-era dial. Supplied in a wooden presentation box.
