Rolex WWII-era Sky-Rocket "Sumner" Dial

Rolex WWII-era Sky-Rocket "Sumner" Dial

Swiss. A fascinating piece of Canadian horological history, this WWII-era Rolex Sky Rocket features a rare double-signed dial custom-branded for Sumner & Sons, a prominent mid-century jeweller in London, Ontario. Housed in a stainless-steel case stamped, "Rolex", on the inner caseback, the professionally restored dial retains its iconic military layout with sharp black Arabic numerals, a red 13–24 inner hour scale, and a classic sub-seconds register at 6 o'clock. The hands have been expertly relumed to restore their original period appearance and visibility. Completed on a genuine black leather strap with a stainless-steel buckle, this historic Canadian-market wristwatch is offered as watch-only, without its original box or paperwork. Stamped, "Rolex", on the inside caseback.
