An early Rolex Submariner 6205 with gilt pencil hands which was featured in a Japanese collector publication. Interestingly, the dial is depth rated in white and some will say that it should be non depth rated. I therefore approached a very well respected collector who said that it was probably a transitional variant. After all, not many dials will have feet that fit an A260 movement - something which my watchmaker verified. The original bezel insert would've been one without the 15 min markers.
As they say, anything is possible with Rolex!
