1965 Rolex Orchid 18K White Gold Cocktail Watch with Integrated Solid Rope Bracelet with Box

An exceptionally unusual and elegant 1965 Rolex Oyster cocktail watch in 18 karat white gold, featuring one of the most distinctive integrated bracelets we have encountered.

This beautiful vintage Rolex remains in remarkably clean, unpolished condition. The case has never been polished, preserving its original lines and character. The watch was recently serviced and is ready to be enjoyed.

An Exceptional Integrated Rolex Bracelet

The highlight of this watch is undoubtedly its extraordinary original 18K white gold integrated bracelet.

The bracelet features an intricate, rope-like design, with rows of finely textured links resembling woven gold ropes. The upper surfaces are polished, creating a striking contrast between the textured sections and the bright polished details. The result is a bracelet that catches the light beautifully and gives this small Rolex an unmistakably luxurious presence.

Unlike a conventional Rolex watch designed to accept interchangeable leather straps or bracelets, this bracelet is permanently integrated with the watch case. It is an integral part of the watch's original design and is not intended to be replaced with a standard strap.

The bracelet is in exceptional condition, completely intact and remarkably well preserved, with a crisp appearance and excellent overall structure.

Bracelet Size

The original 18-karat gold Rolex bracelet will fit wrists measuring up to approximately 6 inches.

Freshly Serviced

The watch has been completely overhauled and serviced by our experienced watchmaker.

The movement was carefully inspected and serviced to ensure that the watch is functioning properly and ready to be enjoyed.

Timekeeping

This watch is powered by its original manual-winding mechanical movement, reflecting the traditional craftsmanship of Rolex during this period. As with any vintage mechanical timepiece approaching 60 years of age, it should not be expected to keep time with the precision of a modern quartz watch or a newly manufactured chronometer.

The movement is functioning and has been serviced; however, timekeeping can vary depending on wear, position, and usage. Accuracy may also be affected by environmental conditions and the individual characteristics of a vintage mechanical movement.
