While Rolex production in current times is characterized by a relatively high output, this was definitely not the case during the first half of the past century. The overall production of the house at that time indeed had much more restricted numbers, but some timepieces, like early chronographs, seem to have been produced in exceedingly small numbers. Reference 3666 is one of these relics from a time past. The public market, all auction houses combined, has so far seen only a handful of such pieces.
When this rarity is combined with the pink dial - making this example a pink-on-steel watch, one of the most aesthetically pleasing and unusual combinations of case and dial - and its absolutely outstanding condition, very close to as-new, the result is a timepiece of boundless charm and collectability which would be a treasured addition the most important and refined Rolex collections.
