The 1014 is a time-only Oyster Perpetual with central seconds. Auction catalogues describe gold-covered steel cases, smooth bezels and 34–35 mm diameters. They name both Cal. 1530 and Cal. 1560, but the records do not establish a production span or a changeover year.
The 1014 is a time-only Oyster Perpetual with central seconds. Auction catalogues describe gold-covered steel cases, smooth bezels and 34–35 mm diameters. They name both Cal. 1530 and Cal. 1560, but the records do not establish a production span or a changeover year.
Catalogue dates range from circa 1951 to the 1960s. Bonhams dates a case numbered 769*** to circa 1951; Bellmans dates serial 769199 to 1962. The serial could fit Bonhams’ masked number, but the catalogues do not confirm that they describe the same watch.

Antiquorum dated its 2002 and 2006 examples to the 1960s. Its 2024 lot is dated circa 1962 and includes a chronometer certificate bearing that year. Bonhams described a 34 mm gold-plated steel 1014 with case number 769*** as circa 1951. Bellmans later listed case serial 769199 and dated it to 1962. Both catalogues give a 34 mm gold-covered steel case and Cal. 1560, and Bellmans’ serial fits the masked Bonhams number. The records do not confirm that these are the same watch, so keep each date with its own catalogue.
Antiquorum dated its 2002 and 2006 examples to the 1960s; its 2024 lot and the accompanying chronometer certificate both give 1962. Bonhams dates a 34 mm gold-plated steel case numbered 769*** to circa 1951. Bellmans dates serial 769199 to 1962 and lists a 34 mm gold-covered steel case with Cal. 1560. That serial is consistent with Bonhams' masked prefix, but the catalogues do not confirm that their listings describe the same watch. These lot dates place documented examples in the 1950s and 1960s; they do not set the reference's production boundaries.


Pergola places 769199 in its 1961 band. The photographed Dowling–Hess chart lists 710,776 in 1951 and 840,396 in 1952, but it does not list 769199. It gives no direct date for this case. Bonhams’ circa-1951 estimate applies to the masked number 769***; the catalogue does not show whether it is this case. [[Reference:Serial-numbers#Per-reference_serial_detail|The serial-number guide]] records these details. [https://rolexhaven.com/serial-numbers.html RolexHaven's chart photographs]
Pergola assigns 769199 to its 1961 band. The photographed Dowling–Hess chart gives comparison entries 710,776 for 1951 and 840,396 for 1952; it has no entry for 769199. [[Reference:Serial-numbers#Per-reference_serial_detail|The serial-number guide]] records the comparison.

The separate Antiquorum 2024 watch has case 769921. Its catalogue date and certificate both read 1962. Taken together, the records place catalogued examples in the 1950s and 1960s without establishing the reference's first or last year.
