Can someone help me identify my vintage rolex?

Ju13s · January 21

Hello, I have a vintage pre 1920's gold rolex (wind-up). It was given to my great grandfather by his mother for his 21st birthday in October 1922. I believe the waych may have previously belonged to his mother, as a hand engraved date inside seems to suggest this. I have taken some good photos. I need it repaired, and was wondering what model and date it was made, and an estimate to fix.

Welcome to the forum.

Best way to date at least the case is a better photo of the hallmarks.

Photos of the movement would also help along with any engraving on it.

we really need a picture of the movement. Then we don't do estimates here. If you send it the Rolex though it's going to be extremely expensive because Rolex charges a heck of a lot of money for anything that's vintage and normal vintage for them is not something as old as this.

then here's a website with information about case back markings of vintage Rolex watches. then they do give us a clue about the vintage Rolex movements with the name of Rebberg movement. then when I look that up that is definitely a vintage watch that means anyone who services this is going to be expensive as there is very likely no parts available because the age.
