Very Good Condition
This vintage Rolex Oyster Perpetual Date Ref. 69190 in stainless steel is presented in very good condition with light traces of use. Featuring a 26 mm case, engine-turned bezel, silver dial, date display and Jubilee bracelet, this 1987 watch offers timeless appeal. Ideal for everyday wear or smart occasions, it comes with its original box.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What size is this Rolex and how does it wear? A: This watch has a 26 mm case, giving it a refined and petite look on the wrist. It is ideal if you prefer a classic, jewellery-like fit rather than an oversized watch. The bracelet is currently sized to approximately 15.5 cm.
Q: Is this watch automatic or battery-powered? A: It is a mechanical self-winding Rolex, not a quartz watch. It winds through wrist movement during wear, and if it has stopped it can be started again by gently winding the crown.
Q: Does this watch have a date function? A: Yes. This Oyster Perpetual Date features a date display on the dial for practical everyday wear.
Q: How do I set or start the watch after it has stopped? A: Unscrew the crown carefully and wind it clockwise to start the movement. Once the time and date are set, the crown should always be screwed back down fully to help preserve water resistance.
Q: Is the crystal sapphire? A: Oyster Perpetual Date models are fitted with a sapphire crystal and a Cyclops magnifier over the date, giving strong scratch resistance and clearer date visibility.
Q: Is it waterproof? A: Rolex Oyster cases are designed for strong water resistance when properly sealed. However, as this is a vintage 1987 watch, we recommend treating it with care around water unless it has been recently pressure-tested and confirmed water resistant.
Q: What is included with this watch? A: The original box is included. Everything included with the purchase is listed in the product information; if an item is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: What condition is this watch in? A: It is described as being in very good condition with light traces of use. The metal surfaces remain shiny with light scratches consistent with careful wear over time.
Q: Can the Jubilee bracelet be resized? A: Yes, Jubilee bracelets can usually be adjusted by a professional watchmaker. This example is currently sized to about 15.5 cm, and any extra fit will depend on whether spare links are available.
Q: How should I care for a vintage Rolex like this? A: Wipe it gently with a soft cloth and, if needed, clean the metal bracelet carefully with mild soapy water and a soft brush only when the crown is fully screwed down. Avoid harsh chemicals, steam and impact, and consider periodic servicing for long-term reliability.
Q: How do you authenticate the watch? A: Every piece sold by A Retro Tale is inspected by specialists using detailed checks of materials, construction, finishing, serial and reference details, and overall consistency. We stand behind the authenticity of every watch we sell.
