Rolex Vintage Silk Printed Watch Silk Scarf

Used🧣 Silk Scarves · 1950s–90s

The edit · Silk Scarves

A used silk scarf. Silk scarves from these decades were designed by artists and finished by hand. A signed, hand-rolled hem still reads as luxury sixty years on.

The name on the wrist that never lost value.

Founded in London in 1905 by Hans Wilsdorf and Alfred Davis, then moved to Geneva in 1919. Rolex made the first water-resistant wristwatch, the Oyster, in 1926, and the first self-winding movement with a perpetual rotor in 1931.

No other brand holds value like Rolex. Steel sports models from the 1960s and 1970s, the Submariner, Daytona and GMT-Master, are among the most liquid collectibles on earth, and their scarcity is part of the design.

What to look for

Check the reference number between the lugs and the serial, and whether the dial, hands and bracelet are period-correct. An original dial and an unpolished case are worth far more than a refinished one.

Hand-rolled hems and saturated color are the tells of a good scarf. Gently steam it before judging; vintage silk relaxes beautifully.

How to wear it

Knot it at the neck, tie it onto a bag handle, or frame it. A scarf this good spends as much time on display as it does on your shoulders.
