Produced during the early years of the Oyster era, it represents an important chapter in Rolex's pursuit of durable and waterproof wristwatches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"218\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"559\"\u003eSharing the same elegant case profile and dimensions as its Bubble Back sibling, the reference 2765 offers all the charm of these pioneering Oyster models while delivering a distinctly different wearing experience. Unlike the Bubble Back, which housed a thicker automatic movement and required a more pronounced case back, the Flatback is powered by a slimmer manual-winding movement. As a result, it sits noticeably closer to the wrist, offering a refined and comfortable fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"559\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1038\"\u003eToday, the reference 2765 is appreciated not only for its historical significance as one of Rolex's earliest waterproof watches, but also for its balanced proportions, understated elegance, and rarity among early Oyster references.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1038\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1271\"\u003eThe case is presented in excellent condition and features characteristic hooded lugs, single-sided lug holes, and a smooth bezel.

Its creamy surface almost reminds us of a perfectly made creme brûlée dessert—a look that can only be created by time itself. A fine minute track frames the dial, while the small seconds register at 6 o’clock provides pleasing symmetry. The even numerals are displayed in elegant Arabic form, while the odd hours are marked by delicate baton indexes, all executed in a warm copper tone. Completing the composition are a pair of fine blued hands that add a beautiful touch of contrast and sophistication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"1549\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2125\"\u003eElegant, honest, and full of character, this Flatback perfectly illustrates why these early Oyster references continue to captivate vintage Rolex collectors nearly a century after they were made.The watch and its handwound movement has been fully serviced by our watch maker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2125\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2402\"\u003eA wonderfully preserved early Oyster offering a rare glimpse into the foundations of Rolex's legendary history, this Flatback is a subtle masterpiece for collectors seeking something beyond the usual suspects!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2402\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2613\"\u003e\u003cem data-renderer-mark=\"true\"\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2613\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ak-ul\" data-indent-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2632\"\u003eRolex Oyster Precision Reference 2765\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2673\"\u003e30mm steel case, one sided lug holes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2713\"\u003eSerial 906xx dating to 1939\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2744\"\u003eOyster patent crown\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2767\"\u003eSmooth steel bezel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2789\"\u003eCream custard dial with small seconds, copper coloured hour markers, blued hands\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2873\"\u003eBulang and sons steel straight end links bracelet\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2927\"\u003eFully serviced by our watchmaker\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2964\"\u003eOne-year mechanical warranty\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-renderer-start-pos=\"2996\"\u003eFree worldwide Fedex Priority shipping\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Rolex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54308921475399,"sku":"W-3822","price":4400.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0588\/8406\/3266\/files\/W-3822Rolexflatbackref2765_222_1x1_29fb8ef9-1db8-4bd5-971b-090fc414cf4d.jpg?v=1783498663","url":"https:\/\/bulangandsons.de\/products\/rolex-oyster-precision-flat-back-ref-2765-creme-brulee-dial-w3822","provider":"Bulangandsons.de","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
