1950s Rolex 'Piccolino' Ref. 3055
The 3055 is a bit of a catch all reference, with many different cases and dials all falling under it. There was a continuous production in the 1930s with olive pushers and this relaunch in the 1950s with square pushers. All, however, were 30mm with a Valjoux 69. This was marketed at debut as the ‘smallest chronograph wristwatch in the world’. Rolex back then was 36mm on average and this complication at this size was a technical accomplishment. Most think about 500 examples were made in total, 200 of which are thought to have been made in yellow gold and 20 in pink gold. Even more interesting, Enzo Ferrari wore one all the time
