PRODUCED OVER A SHORT PERIOD OF FIVE YEARS ONLY, THE TRU-BEAT ROLEX WAS INTRODUCED IN THE 1950'S AND WAS FITTED WITH A DEAD-BEAt SECONDS HAND. THE RARITY RESIDES IN THE FACT THAT MANY OF THESE WATCHES WERE LATER CONVERTED BY WATCHMAKERS TO NORMAL SECONDS HANDS UNLIKE THE PRESENT WATCH. THIS PARTICULAR EXAMPLE ALSO BEARS A RARE BLACK DIAL.
