The 1005 is the fluted-bezel reference among the four-digit no-date Oyster Perpetuals. The [[Reference:1002|1002]] has a smooth bezel; refs. 1003, 1006, 1007 and 1008 appear with engine-turned bezels. Auction records use paired designations such as 1002/1005, 1003/1005 and 1005/1035. These can reflect different numbers between the lugs and inside the caseback; read the markings on each watch rather than treating the paired numbers as a single reference. | The 1005 is the fluted-bezel reference among the four-digit no-date Oyster Perpetuals.

A collector's four-photo listing shows another pairing: 1023 is stamped between the lugs, while 1005 appears inside the caseback. The same images show 14K marks and a rotor stamped 1570. The dial reads Oyster Perpetual. The seller dates the watch to 1959; the post includes no papers. This is one observed watch, not a general rule for every 1023 or 1005.

A 2025 Gardiner Houlgate catalogue also lists inside caseback no. 1005 on a separate ref. 1023. This gives a second record of the pairing; it does not establish that every 1005 inner cover belongs to an outer 1023.
