There was a time when Rolex would write down the name of the retailer on the face of the wristwatch and there was a time when Cartier used to sell Rolexes in their stores. Put two and two together and you’ve got a stack of antique Rolexes out there with the Cartier signature like this 1967 Double Red Sea Dweller up for auction that has a pre-sale estimate of between $25,000 to $45,000.

That’s interesting! Two legendary names on one vintage dial – that looks great.

Interesting blog. It wasn’t long ago that Rolex was doing the same thing with Tiffany.
